Hi,

I am using Crypt::RSA module, but I am encountering a very peculiar error. Please refer to the following code snippet. 

use Crypt::RSA;

my $message="This is a sample message.";
my $rsa = new Crypt::RSA; 
my ($public, $private) = 
        $rsa->keygen ( 
          Identity  => 'Piyush Shourie <piyush_shourie@infosys.com>',
          Size      => 1024,  
          Password  => 'A day so foul & fair', 
          Verbosity => 1,
      ) or die "1".$rsa->errstr();

The following error message results:
PARI: *** forbidden division t_REAL % t_INT. at C:/Perl/site/lib/Crypt/Random.pm line 93.

Any insight into the cause of this error message and method to correct this behaviour will be highly appreciated.

Regards, PS
