I am working on writing a Gentoo ebuild for backuppc, and I am seeing 
this same exact error when I call the init script.  The relevant section 
from my ebuild using configure.pl is:


./configure.pl \
         --batch \
         --bin-path perl=$(type -p perl) \
         --bin-path ptar=$(type -p tar) \
         --bin-path rsync=$(type -p rsync) \
         --bin-path ping=$(type -p ping) \
         --bin-path df=$(type -p df) \
         --bin-path ssh=$(type -p ssh) \
         --bin-path sendmail=$(type -p sendmail) \
         --bin-path hostname=$(type -p hostname) \
         --bin-path gzip=$(type -p gzip) \
         --bin-path bzip2=$(type -p bzip2) \
         --bin-path hostname=$(type -p hostname) \
         --hostname $(hostname) \
         --uid-ignore \
         --dest-dir ${D} \
         --html-dir ${MY_HTDOCSDIR}/image \
         --html-dir-url /backuppc/image \
         --cgi-dir ${MY_CGIBINDIR}/ \
         ${myconf} || die "failed the configure.pl script"

What sorts of things should I be looking for to find why the Lib->new is 
failing?  Tony, did you ever find a good solution to this problem?
