You're right, I can reproduce the problem here. The File::Temp module
which I started to use in pca 20091210-01 is not included with the
standard perl in Solaris 8.
I switched to using internal functions instead of File::Temp in the
current development release of pca (20091215-01), so it works with older
perl versions again. A new official release including the fix will be
published in the next days.
I am suggesting that the pca script be tested on Solaris 8 baseline
systems before release and I have a farm of servers here if you need
access.
Actually I do have a Solaris 8 machine in my own test machine farm, but
as there are no new patches for this OS release (unless one has vintage
support), I've been only testing it sporadically and missed out on that
issue.
Thanks for the report!
Martin.
