RH9 Parser.pm error

[T²]

Julian,

I followed your instructions below to manual install the HTML::Parser
and it was installed in the same directory as the upgraded RPM.  I am
still getting the error.

Ah! There's your problem. Upgrading results in a load of Perl modules
being
installed in the wrong place, due to a new version of Perl in RH8 and 9.

You can safely leave the RPM's in place, but use CPAN to install the
modules again.
         perl -MCPAN -e shell
         o conf prerequisites_policy ask
         install HTML::Parser
         quit
