Or perhaps (just guessing here) this is yet another case of the old
perl-modules-5.24 still around which provides libpod-parser-perl, cf.
e.g. https://bugs.debian.org/988360

Title:
  missing dependency on libpod-parser-perl

Status in licensecheck package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  $ licensecheck -h
  Base class package "Pod::Parser" is empty.
      (Perhaps you need to 'use' the module which defines that package first,
      or make that module available in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.32.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.32.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.32 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.32 /usr/share/perl/5.32 /usr/local/lib/site_perl).

  $ apt policy licensecheck
  licensecheck:
    Installed: 3.1.1-2
    Candidate: 3.1.1-2
    Version table:
   *** 3.1.1-2 500

  The error persisted after apt install --reinstall licensecheck.
  The error did not happen any more after I wrote sudo apt install libpod-parser-perl.
