Paul,

Did you check the timestamp of the new .pm and/or .so?  Maybe the internal 
$VERSION variable was not updated by the module author.

Subject: Installing DBD::File via CPAN


Hello,

I have a small-but-weird problem.  When I install the 0.34 release of
DBD::File via CPAN it seems to make/test/install properly but... it just
doesn't stick.  The installation seems to stay at 0.33.  I also get when I
download directly and do the make/test/install myself.  Here's the session
to show what I mean.  Any ideas what might be going on?  This is Perl 5.8.7
on AIX 5.2.0.0

Paul
