[SOLVED] [ffmpeg] pod2man: command not found

Postby Malvineous » Fri Oct 01, 2021 12:13 pm

Hi all,

I'm trying to build the Arch Linux ARM package for ffmpeg (downloaded from archlinuxarm:PKGBUILDs/extra/ffmpeg/) to try out a patch, but it's failing with the error:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
MAN doc/ffmpeg.1
/bin/sh: line 1: pod2man: command not found
make: *** [doc/Makefile:94: doc/ffmpeg.1] Error 127
')
I've installed all the depends and makedepends packages, along with base-devel, so I'm assuming this means the ffmpeg PKGBUILD makedepends is missing whatever package pod2man belongs to?

I can't seem to find out which package this is however - does anyone know what I need to install to get pod2man available so I can finish compiling the PKGBUILD?

My bad, it's part of base-devel but if you've only freshly installed it, you have to re-source /etc/profile so that /usr/bin/core_perl/ gets added to your path. pod2man is part of the "perl" package (included in base-devel) and gets installed as /usr/bin/core_perl/pod2man.
