The error I get is this:

$ ./script/clio_test.pl 
Clio::Model::YAML uses NEXT, which is deprecated. Please see the Class
+::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation for details. NEXT used  at /home/mill
+er/actions/note_taker/Clio/script/../lib/Clio/Model/YAML.pm line 16

I read the documentation, and tried to follow it (hence the use MRO::Compat above). It says,

You add use MRO::Compat to the top of a package as you start converting it, and gradually replace your calls to NEXT::method() with maybe::next::method(), and calls to NEXT::ACTUAL::method() with next::method().

but when I change my code to my $self = $class->maybe::next::new(@_); I get this error:

Am I reading this wrong? How am I supposed to do this under C3? Thanks for any help you can give.
