Status: closed (fixed)

On RHEL v3.0 the configure script won't work because the File::Temp class included with Redhat's perl 5.8.0 build doesn't support the "$obj = new File::Temp" object-orientated way of doing things:
% ./configure
Finding cc
Finding path
Finding base_cflags
Finding is_gcc
Can't locate object method "new" via package "File::Temp" at ./configure line 220.
Could you please either use the earlier (non-OO) methods from the class, or ensure that the required package version number is declared in the "use File::Temp" line so that the script bombs out earlier with an appropriate error message?
