Did you install this module with the canonical
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/me/lib
make
make test
make install
If you did, then did you use the same perl executable to install the
module that you're using to run it? i.e., does 'which perl' eq the
shebang line of your script? If you have two perls on your system
(seems a lot of people do), then it may be that the other module isn't
installed for the run-time perl.
