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

Hi -- I am having a strange issue with the venerable Parallel::PVM module:

http://search.cpan.org/~dleconte/Parallel-Pvm-1.4.0/Pvm.pm

On my Fedora 20/perl v5.18.2 system this module throws an exception at LOAD time:

Invalid version format (non-numeric data) at /usr/lib64/perl5/DynaLoader.pm line 213.

This same error is reported in automated testing at CPAN

http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/eb5ea8e8-6481-11e2-8d2c-a70b2eceb379

but apparently the module is quasi-orphaned, because the registered author isn't responding to the test report.

Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be???

oh, and thanks in advance for any insight!
