[Geoip-perl] Can't locate object method "bootstrap"

[Pathik <pa...@ya...>]

 Hi

I am trying to install Geo IP Perl from
http://www.maxmind.com/app/perl

I installed the GeoIP C API Lib fine, no errors. But
when I try to install the
Geo::IP Perl Module I get and error.
"perl Makefile.pl" runs okay
"make" runs okay
"make test" give the following error:
---
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl
"-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e"
"test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t

I dont know what 'Can't locate object method
"bootstrap"' means or how to
fix it.

I removed the BEGIN{ }
$VERSION = '1.27';
bootstrap Geo::IP $VERSION;

And ran the "make test" I get this:--

PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl
"-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0,
'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t

I am trying to test this software and see how it works
I am interested in purchasing the License for more
accurate details.

Thank you.
