Thanks all, good stuff there for me to follow up on.
Net::IP is not listed as a dependency, it should be. I'll see if I
can get hold of the qpsmtpd ebuild developers and get a bug filed.

Considering that 0.84 is quite a lot older than current, I'd do a search for
Net::IP within the qpsmtpd repo and see what turns up:

Hi all. I'm putting together a new server, using qpsmtp.
I'm running up to date gentoo, using the gentoo ebuild for
qpsmtpd-0.84-r2.
When I go to start the service, it fails. Debugging a little, strace
reveals that as the server starts up, it's trying to stat
lib/Net/IP.pmc and lib/Net/IP.pm. Those fail. It then says
eval Can't locate Net/IP.pm: lib/Net/IP.pm: Permission denied at /usr/
share/qpsmtpd/plugins/check_relay line 5.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/qpsmtpd/plugins/
check_relay line 5.
Looking back in the strace history, there are other modules which it
successfully finds, for instance Net/DNS.pm. For those, after
stat'ing lib/Net/DNS.pm, it goes on to search for others in the
usual places until it finds it. It's almost as if something were
bashing the value of @INC partway through, but that's hard to
swallow.
Does this ring any bells? I expect it's some sort of stupid
configuration problem.
Thanks in advance for any hints.
