Package: libxml-simple-perl
Version: 2.14-1
Severity: normal

As the author of the XML::Simple module, I get a lot of email enquiries
from users.  Many of these queries can be addressed by suggesting the
user type the command:

  perldoc XML::Simple::FAQ

Unfortunately, this does not work with the packaged version of
XML::Simple on Debian because the file has been installed as:

  /usr/share/doc/libxml-simple-perl/FAQ.pod.gz

rather than:

  /usr/share/perl5/XML/Simple/FAQ.pod

of the 133 CPAN modules I have installed from the Debian repositories on
my Sarge system, not a single one (other than libxml-simple-perl) has
POD files installed under /usr/share/doc.

By the way, thanks for taking the time to package my module.

Regards
Grant McLean
