As Albannach mentioned, gif support has been removed due to the Unisys patent. Also, don't forget the die() call. You have a string in void context :) 
use strict;
use Chart::Lines;
my $obj = Chart::Lines->new or die "Chart does not work\n";
$obj->set ( title => 'Graph Test');
my @data = ( [ 'foo', 'bar', 'junk' ], [ 30.2,  23.5,  92.1   ] );    

# Should create a png file with graph
$obj->png ("test.gif", \@data);

However, don't forget your audience! PNG support is not available in older browsers. Even newer ones tend not to support all of the features of PNG.
