Hello,

you can test this command for verify what directories were include by
default in the search path for modules   perl -e 'print "@INC\n";' 
or perl -V

If "/usr/libdata/perl/5.00503/" was not in this variable (@INC), this is
normal that perl does not find it.

The solution is to add this path in the @INC variable in the perl script
or in the PERLLIB environment variable.

	Cedric
