Thank you for letting me know, but I don't see this behaviour on my F-10. I have same version of apr-devel, but my perl is perl-5.10.0-51.fc10.x86_64. Could you try with the latest update and let me know? The module Pod::Escapes is subpackage of perl so it should be here. 

Could you please attach output from:
rpm -q perl
rpm -q perl-Pod-Escapes

Hi Marcela,

Sorry for the late reply.  Just got back...

The RPM queries look like this:

[ole@ole Documents]$ rpm -q perl
perl-5.10.0-49.fc10.i386
[ole@ole Documents]$ rpm -q perl-Pod-Escapes
perl-Pod-Escapes-1.04-49.fc10.i386
perl-Pod-Escapes-1.04-51.fc10.i386

Hmmm...looks like there's two versions of Pod-Escapes.  If I run yum update I still get the error message.  I'm going to try to remove perl-Pod-Escapes-1.04-51.fc10.i386 and try again.

OK - Now yum update works fine.

I guess the two different versions were confusing yum.  I'm not sure how they both ended up on my system, since it's a brand new install.  Anyways at least it works :-).

I closed the ticket and market it as work for me.

Please let me know if If any more information is needed to isolate how the two different versions were installed.  I think I tried the graphical updater at one point, instead of using yum.  Perhaps there's a bug in it.  

Thanks,
- Ole
