# New Ticket Created by Ricardo SIGNES # Please include the string: [perl #119439] # in the subject line of all future correspondence about this issue. # <URL: https://rt.perl.org:443/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=119439 > We have been working (slowwwly) for years to remove Pod::Parser from the core perl distribution. At this point, I believe the only blocker is Pod::Checker. Pod::Checker is waiting to be converted through the application of this patch: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=85442 Once that is done, we will need to update the known problems file for the podchecker test and we can add "use deprecate" to Pod::Parser. (Or so I think.) That should get done by perl 5.20 so we can fully remove Pod::Parser in perl 5.22. -- rjbsThread Next
