I am in the process of rebuilding my web site after a phishing site break-in (yikes!). The site is fine now, and secure, but for some reason I can't get MARC::Record-2.0.0 to install. I get an error message saying that perl 5.8.2 is required, but that I only have perl 5.8.0. (And indeed I do have perl 5.8.0) But I'm pretty sure this version of MARC::Record *did* install under perl 5.8.0 that last time I tried. I cheated by changing line 2 in the Makefile.PL file to read "require perl-5.8.0" instead of "5.8.2". It installed, but it only passed about 20% of the tests during make test. Am I asking for trouble here? Will it work, or should I try installing an earlier version? (If so, which earlier version, and where should I get it?) Also, I saw a patch somewhere that you could use if you're installing into systems that use Perl 5.00xxx or earlier (or something to that effect).
Any thoughts from anyone on this? Many thanks! - Chris
