bugzilla - jobqueue.pl exits with error - Undefined subroutine &Carp::shortmess

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

bugzilla jobqueue.pl is exiting with the following error:

jobqueue.pl[10731]: ESC[31mUndefined subroutine &Carp::shortmess_heavy
+ called at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Carp.pm line 260.ESC[0m
[download]

But there is a subroutine shortmess_heavy available in Carp/Heavy.pm. What is the problem here ? Can somebody please help to fix this ?

`"Carp.pm" ne "Carp/Heavy.pm"`. Your version of bugzilla seems to expect a different version of Carp.pm that contains `shortmess_heavy()`. The current one (1.25) does have this function. Do you need to upgrade Perl? Post the output of "`perl -V`" (uppercase V!) and "`perl -MCarp -e 'print $Carp::VERSION'`" (if you use Windows, use "`perl -MCarp -e "print $Carp::VERSION"`" instead). Also, report the bugzilla version you attempt to use.

Carp appears to export the optional method &Carp::shortmess. Does this need to call &Carp::Heavy::shortmess_heavy?	[reply]

Bugzilla's `checksetup.pl` should have noticed this. So you either found a bug in Bugzilla (please report it!) or you did not install Bugzilla as documented. Alexander -- Today I will gladly share my knowledge and experience, for there are no sweeter words than "I told you so". ;-)	[reply] [d/l]
