Perl::...rereqs(3pm)
π Perl::...rereqs(3pm) β the whole vibe π
okay so bestie, this page lists as Perl::...rereqs(3pm) in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and the actual full name of the thing is:
Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite::Util::Prereqs
yes the filename is all abbreviated and mysterious, no that's not a typo, that's just how the man page shelf labels it. moving on β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite::Util::Prereqs β that's the whole name, say it with your chest π
π SYNOPSIS π
...and that's it. That's the section. Literally nothing in it. Silence. Crickets. π¦
Like, not "here's an empty code block", not "here's a usage line" β the original just leaves it blank, and we're not about to invent one, periodt. This is an internal thing, so nobody's supposed to be typing it out at a shell prompt anyway, iykyk π
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
Real talk: this is an internal utility to dedupe prereqs. That's the entire description, and it's honestly iconic in its brevity π
So like β it exists to take prereqs and dedupe them. Clean up the duplicates. That's its whole job, and it's doing it. No cap. π«Ά
It says internal, bestie, so this isn't a public API you're meant to be calling yourself. It's plumbing in the Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite machinery. π

π SEE ALSO π
Nope, there isn't one! The original has no SEE ALSO section, so there's nothing to point you at. No crumbs, no links, no cross-refs. Just vibes. π§
