Thanks, Nigel. I couldn't get this to work for me, but the following did
get me there in the end:

my @avail_roles =
          $schema->resultset('AppRole')->search_literal(
            'role_id not in
                (select role_id
                 from   user_role u
                 where  u.user_id = ?)', $user_id
        );

I'd rather have used the "not exists" clause, as it's more efficient
than "not in" in the context of what I wanted to do, but I couldn't find
a way to express it.

Cheers

Dan
