perl -V output please. Do you have problems emerging any other perl modules? Is this a fresh system, and if so which stage did you start at? Thanks,

[Comment 2 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) 2007-04-15 11:28:34 UTC]

ahlo?

[Comment 3 Sean Sullivan 2007-04-17 16:41:22 UTC]

Sorry - I had to get a new email addy and missed the response... 

Due to other issues I was experiencing around this time I just rebuilt my entire machine. This issue had popped up during an extremely painful revdep-rebuild so I just gave up.

Wish I could have been more help, but I needed my machine working again :)

[Comment 4 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) 2007-04-22 15:05:30 UTC]

Please reopen if it crops up again :) Thanks!
