I've looked at the report, and the problem *appears* to be that
"perldoc" is not available during the build.  It is part of the
perl package; a symlink is installed in /usr/pkg/bin.  However,
there's no occurrence of perldoc in any of the mk/tools/* files,
so I could not immediately see a way to indicate via pkgsrc
USE_TOOLS+= to symlink this program into the appropriate
subdirectory of work/.

The package already does USE_TOOLS+= perl, so the perl package
must be installed, but perhaps /usr/pkg/bin isn't in the path
during the build in your case?

So what's the proper way of dealing with this?

Best regards,
