Hi, sorry for the late reply. I don't quite understand what you are asking for. Adding a (1) suffix to facilitate hyperlinking to the dpkg man page ? The source in cpan/ExtUtils-MakeMaker/bin/instmodsh is POD markup, and it currently reads On Debian system, B<core> and B<vendor> modules are managed by C<dpkg>. I suspect L<dpkg(1)> is what we want. That would render to \fBdpkg\fR\|(1) with pod2man, and <a href="http://man.he.net/man1/dpkg">dpkg(1)</a> with pod2html. -- Niko
