[Bug 394481] Re: Confusing conflicts with CPAN and core perl

 

There is an non-issue very similar you can get if the distro updates
these files to something newer than cpan. I had an old copy of
Compress::Base::Common version (2.015) in
/usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0/IO/Compress/Base/Common.pm that I aparently
installed (guessing here).

## A quick test to see if your affected by the issue
$ perl -MCompress::Zlib -e1
IO::Compress::Base::Common version 2.02 required--this is only version 2.015 at t line 11.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/Compress/Zlib.pm line 11.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

Deleting /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0/IO/Compress/Base/Common.pm fixed
this like-issue. (not the same one but it can return similar errors)
