Installing the Openview::Message::* modules

neilwatson has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I've been examining the Openveiw Perl modules (Openview::Message::*) for use in our deployment of OV. I attempted to install them but, had some problems. A sample error during make test:

Running make test
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_h
+arness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/00opcmsg....ok 6/7Option 
+minor is not valid for this command. (OpC30-902) Usage : opcmsg [-hel

I believe there may be some changes in the syntax that HP's opcmsg expects in our installed version (7.2) and what this module is programmed to provide. Would that be a correct assessment?
