I'd try an older version -I/olderstuff... I'm not sure what the enboldened bit of the above means? Is there some cpan trick to install an older version of something?

I'm not sure what the enboldened bit of the above means? Is there some cpan trick to install an older version of something? perl -I/path/to/older version ... if installed in custom location using INSTALL_BASE way ( local::lib way ) as demonstrated (on not win32) in Re^3: object version does not match bootstrap parameter ( cpanm --local-lib PERL5LIB) Is there some cpan trick to install an older version of something? There is probably through interactive interface, then there is cpan GBARR/IO-1.25.tar.gz ... thats the latest on cpan ... latest is http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/history/HEAD:/dist/IO/lib/IO/Socket.pm	[reply]

According to your version dump you have IO v1.25_6. According to the below, I have IO-1.25, which reports itself as 1.28: cpan> i IO Database was generated on Wed, 31 Dec 2014 00:22:46 GMT Fetching with LWP: http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/G/GB/GBARR/CHECKSUMS Fetching with LWP: http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/G/GB/GBARR/CHECKSUMS.gz Trying with c:/perl64/bin/wget.exe -O "C:\Perl5.18\cpan\sources\authors\id\G\G +B\GBARR\CHECKSUMS.tmp10700" to get http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/G/GB/GBARR/CHECKSUMS --2014-12-31 11:52:45-- http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/G/GB/GBARR/CHE +CKSUMS Resolving www.cpan.org... 94.242.223.198 Connecting to www.cpan.org\|94.242.223.198\|:80... connected.

And according to the versions dumps, I have IO::Socket 1.36, and you have 1.34, but according to search.cpan, the latest version available is "Module Version: 1.31 Source Latest Release: IO-1.31-TRIAL". At this point I think I'm going to rely on wget.
