There is a problem with man pages:
on my system, rpms packages use bziped man pages,
cpan installs uncompressed man pages (standard make install)
I've noticed that uncompressed man pages have a higher priority ,
so, if you rpm over cpan, you will still use the cpan man page.
a turnover is to use perldoc, you will use the pod file that is common
to both systems
