Francesco, you "really" need to get the latest version. The version (.558) on CPAN is like 3 or 4 years old. I do not have Laurent's link handy, so maybe someone else can send it to you or you can look on sourceforge for a "relatively" new version, though not as new as what is what is on Laurent website or in CVS.
