Update Pod-Perldoc to CPAN version 3.23
[DELTA] 3.23 - Sun Feb 23 18:54:43 UTC 2014 * Release 3.23 Yes, this is a packaging error. Mea culpa. In the future test releases will be 3.23_01, etc. See https://twitter.com/frioux/status/429245594180128769 for context. 3.22_02 - Wed Feb 5 05:08:34 UTC 2014 * Add a pager that doesn't redirect stdin RT#85173 Added a special pager environment variable for use when perldoc is in the -m mode that doesn't redirect STDIN. Set PERLDOC_SRC_PAGER to use. As in: PERLDOC_SRC_PAGER=/usr/bin/vim perldoc -m File::Temp * Teach ToTerm.pm to get terminal width RT#85467 Get a terminal width and pass it to Pod::Text::Termcap from one of these sources (in order): 1. An explicit width set from command line with -w 2. MANWIDTH environment variable 3. stty output 4. The default width of 76 (same as Pod::Text) 3.22_01 - Sat Feb 1 05:00:13 UTC 2014 * Match =item more carefully when scanning perlfunc. Fixes RT #86795. Previously matches could be generated on words like 'size' and 'precision' which are not Perl functions. * Cleanup code related to mandoc RT #85844 Patch by Ingo Schwarze * Re-add '-U' flag to skip attempting to drop privileges. RT #87837 * Do not install to INSTALLDIRS after Perl 5.11 RT #89756 * Refactor search_perlop (finds operators like 'q' 'qq' 'tr' and others) RT #86506. Previously most of the text generated was incorrect. * Fix wrong version in DEBUG output from ToTerm.pm RT #85468 * Fix POD errors when scanning parts of perlfunc RT #86472 Patch by Shlomi Fish.
