Argh. Try installing Task::Catalyst::Tutorial. That installs all of the modules you need for everything in that tutorial. > Unfortunately it just creates *.pod files.

Module::Build offers an html target for exactly this purpose. To report it I would suggest looking in the module near the copyright section. There usually are instructions on the preferred way of sending enhancement requests. If you can't find that then you can always go to http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?cpan_rt. But don't do that until after you see whether there are instructions in the module. (There usually are.) > P.S.
