I just got bit by the same thing when I installed
HTML::Template and its dependencies on my file server.  A cron job
that runs mrtg started kicking out the error every five minutes.

A web search finds this:

http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=32296

part of which recommends (as one solution) downgrading PathTools to
v3.25*.  And of course you can get it here:

http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/K/KW/KWILLIAMS/PathTools-3.2501.tar.gz

That fixes it.

Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be
kind to each other and to everyone else.  1 Thessalonians 5:15 (NIV)
