DIAGNOSTICS
Error: Cannot read manifest file $filename: $!
The manifest file could not be opened for reading.
Error: manual definition requires manual object
A call to addManual() expects a new manual object (a OODoc::Manual), however an incompatible thing was passed. Usually, intended was a call to manualsForPackage() or mainManual().
Warning: order conflict "$take" before "$insert" in $file line $number
The order of the objects in a sub-class shall be the same as that of the super class, otherwise the result of merging of the information received from both classes is undertermined.
