Looks like two modules are exporting these equally named functions by default, you should definitely decide which one you prefer and block the others!

Date::Format is one of them, POSIX the other one.

Depends on the modules, look into the documentation, normally you say something like use Module qw(func1 func2); to restrict your selection. See use ...

HTH!

mavericknik: I completely agree with LanX's advice. Depending on whether you want `POSIX::strftime` or `Date::Format::strftime`, you could either: `use Date::Format qw/time2str ctime asctime/; # everything except strf +time` [download] (See the source for the default `@EXPORT` list.) And from POSIX: Everything is exported by default (with a handful of exceptions). This is an unfortunate backwards compatibility feature and its use is strongly discouraged. You should either prevent the exporting (by saying `use POSIX ();`, as usual) and then use fully qualified names (e.g. `POSIX::SEEK_END`), or give an explicit import list. If you do neither and opt for the default (as in `use POSIX;`), you will import hundreds and hundreds of symbols into your namespace. So following this advice from the documentation is something I'd recommend regardless. Update: Clarified last sentence.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
