First, find where the manuals for the new version of perl were installed to. On my system, they ended up under /usr/local/share/man.
$ locate /perl.1 /usr/local/share/man/man1/perl.1 /usr/share/man/man1/perl.1 One solution is set the MANPATH environment variable to read in the alternate directory: $ env MANPATH=/usr/local/share/man man perl Consult the manual for your shell to see how to set MANPATH permanently.
