this may or may not be helpful. Is SELinux active or inactive? Checkbox on
installer screen.
Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2004-07-26 12:39:35 UTC 
This is a perl problem.  The package provides the
perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.4) symbol but does not include 5.8.4 in its
default @INC.
Comment 4 G.Wolfe Woodbury 2004-07-29 16:34:38 UTC 
rawhide/development install as of 2004-07-28 does not exhibit the problem
Comment 5 Tim Waugh 2004-07-29 16:36:06 UTC 
Only because I rebuilt foomatic against perl 5.8.5.  I think it is a
bug that perl-5.8.5-x does not provide 5.8.4 compatibility.

long gone
