Bug#654652: perl: cpanp-run-perl installed in /usr/bin but not a user interface and has no manpage

[Dominic Hargreaves]

Package: perl
Version: 5.14.2-6
Severity: minor

One of the last remaining lintian warnings for the perl source package
concerns a missing manpage for cpanp-run-perl. On inspection, this file
appears to be a simple wrapper for executing a perl program with
autoflushing. The name, and lack of manpage, suggests that this is only
intended for use by CPANPLUS itself, not by user invocation.

If this is the case, it should probably not installed in /usr/bin.

Of course, it is possible that people have relied on it, and its
installation in $PATH is derived from the upstream behaviour, so it may
be safer to just write a manpage for it instead.
