Description of problem: When building some perl-modules with perl-5.12-0-122, I am observing this: ... + /usr/bin/gzip -dc /builddir/build/SOURCES/Catalyst-Runtime-5.80021.tar.gz + /bin/tar -xf - + STATUS=0 + '[' 0 -ne 0 ']' + cd Catalyst-Runtime-5.80021 + /bin/chmod -Rf a+rX,u+w,g-w,o-w . + perldoc perlgpl sh: nroff: command not found + perldoc perlartistic sh: nroff: command not found ... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-5.12.0-122 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try rebuilding perl-Catalyst-Runtime-5.80021 Actual results: c.f. above. Expected results: No warning. Additional info: Smells like either a build/configuration error in perl or a missing dependency of the package containing /usr/bin/perldoc (i.e. ATM, the "perl" package) to me.
I guess you are missing groff as BuildRequirement. It was probably removed from minimal install, because not many packages use it during build.

I am using mock with a slightly modifed "fc13" configuration (Urls tweaked to point to "14" instead of "13" and a repo containing a local perl-5.12.0 rebuild added. The bug is reproducable in koji: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=2179572&name=build.log
Sorry forgot the task id (a scatch built of a fedora-13 package against perl-f14-perltest) http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2179571
Perldoc calls: pod2man | nroff -man | $PAGER so if you don't install groff, which provides nroff, it can't work. Mock didn't contain groff so it should have this problem even before. The only change between F-13 and F-14 was using man-db instead of man. Also I removed 'man' as BR from perl. But these changes shouldn't have any effect on this issue.

Well, I haven't checked if this issue is new, I only reported an issue which I was observing when rebuilding rawhide's perl ;)
It's old issue. http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/perl-Catalyst-Runtime/5.80013/2.fc12/data/logs/noarch/build.log Simply add BR: groff into every package, which miss it. I added it into perl-Catalyst-Runtime.
