I finally got it to work. I displaced the entire site-perl contents for this version of perl and uninstalled then re-installed all of the perl RPM's that were represented in both site-perl and vendor-perl. Now it's working.
The tip was you asking if I had removed the CPAN modules correctly. Obviously I had not removed them completely or removed all that I needed to remove. Thanks for your responses!

We're running BackupPC 3.1.0 on CentOS 4 (RHEL 4 clone) and all Perl modules from Dag Wieers. What does 'rpm -q perl-Compress-Zlib' say? I get: # rpm -q perl-Compress-Zlib perl-Compress-Zlib-2.008-1.el4.rf If you've also used CPAN and ATrpms packages, then you might have ended up with a bit of a mess... Are you sure you removed those correctly and only have Dag's version installed right now?
