You may get faster reponse by sending it to me directly, but...


Please send me the output of "ls -l /home/Lib".

The output is probably comming from the abs_path in:

   142      my @libs =
   143          reverse
   144          map
   145          {
   146              $dir .= "/$_";
   147
   148              my $lib = abs_path "$dir/$base";
   149
   150              ! $found{$lib} && -d $lib ? ($found{$lib}=$lib) : ();
   151          }
   152          split '/', $Bin
   153      ;

 You probably have a dangling link and abs_path is complaining
 that it cannot resolve the symlink.
