Interesting, I'm not sure if that module has the same lineage as Filesys::Df, but for many years I have had reliable operations with the following:

use Filesys::Df;

for my $filesys ( qw { / /usr /opt /sybase /spooltmp /var  /home
 } ) {
    my $df = df( $filesys );
    next if $df->{used} < 0 or 0 == $df->{user_blocks};
    push @df, [ $filesys, $df->{used} / $df->{user_blocks}, $df->{bava
+il}*1024 ];
}

The < 0 was a work-around for some crappy Solaris NFS code that used to return negative numbers on large (>2GB) NFS mounts, it's probably no longer needed.

I just checked on CPAN: both modules are fairly old (which doesn't mean anything negative!) although Filesys::Df was updated more recently.

Personally, I'm quite happy with the procedural approach in this case, I don't think that the OO approach is a win here.
