This one is new to me, any ideas what it means and how to track down a fix? I'm getting at stderr, the following:

hesco@marcus2:~/sandbox/DistroPrsRls$ perl -wc lib/DistroPrsRls.pm
Base class package "DistroPrsRlsAuth" is empty.
    (Perhaps you need to 'use' the module which defines that package f
+irst.)
 at lib/DistroPrsRls.pm line 5
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at lib/DistroPrsRls.pm line 5.

The DistroPrsRlsAuth.pm file includes, in toto:

package DistroPrsRlsAuth;
use base 'CGI::Application';

sub cgiapp_prerun {
  my $self = shift;
  # add run-level specific authorization checks here
  return;
}

1;

And the first few lines of DistroPrsRls.pm read:

package DistroPrsRls;

use Carp;
# use base 'CGI::Application';
use base 'DistroPrsRlsAuth';

sub setup {
[download]

This is my first spin with CGI::Application. All help is appreciated. Thanks.
