in reply to Renaming a module

How about this?
  1. Add frob to Util.
  2. Remove frob from Frob.
  3. add use base Pileofrogs::Util; to Frob.
What do you guys think, would that work too?

    It will work if and only if frob() is a method call. In other words, if you call Pileoffrogs::Frob::frob(), it will not work using the method you describe. But if you call Pileoffrogs::Frob->frob(), it will. If you want Pileoffrogs::Frob::frob() to work, you'll need to add this to Pileoffrogs::Frob::Util: 
    use Exporter;
our @EXPORT_OK = qw(frob);

    and change the use base line in Pileoffrogs::Frob: 
    use base Pileoffrogs::Util (frob);

    Hope that helps..
