Please describe the problem:
I'm just a dumb user and I'm several levels deep in "A requires B which r=
equires
C" hell.  I'm trying to install dvd::rip which needs the Perl Gtk Module.

I have downloaded Gtk-Perl-0.7009 from
http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Gtk, unpacked it and attempted to m=
ake it.
 The "perl Makefile.PL" command exited with no errors.  The "make" died s=
aying:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `build/perl-gtk-ref.pod', needed by
`manifypods'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/download/download/Gtk-Perl-0.7009/Gtk'
make: *** [subdirs] Error 2


Steps to reproduce:
I'm guessing here...

1. load FC4, install everything
2. download above mentioned package
3. follow directions to compile


Actual results:
make dies

Expected results:
make exits cleanly and the required stuff is created

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
I'm pretty ignorant about Perl but I'll try any simple things if you need=
 more info.
