The OP says it is missing, I cannot examine his filesystem. Seems unlikely that a broken download would result in a good compile and a single missing file; but maybe he looked in the wrong place. With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.	[reply]

I agree, perldelta.pod comes with the tarball; it isn't generated automatically. Something is wrong with the tarball or an incomplete extraction if that file is missing.	[reply]
