Re^3: Untar in perl

    That should be working. Perhaps you've got a really old installation of Archive::Tar (and I do mean really old; get_files was added in 2003 looking at the CHANGES file)? Check what perl -MArchive::Tar -le 'print $Archive::Tar::VERSION' prints.

      But even if get_files is missing, you still shouldn't get the speculation that Archive::Tar has not been loaded. Archive::Tar->new() has already worked, so perl knows quite well that Archive::Tar has been loaded. Methinks that Anu has cleverly altered the actual error that was reported ...

      Cheers,
