Also, with this script and with most well-written perl scripts, 
modules, libraries, etc., you can do

perldoc perl-after-upgrade

to read the perl "pod" commentary that is literally embedded inside 
the perl code (making the documentation OS independent and 
inseparable from the script). In this case, result is the same as 
the man page. See also:

perldoc perlpod

for more information on embedded Perl documentation.
