I understand from other posts that this is probably caused by my having
two PERL installations but:

a. I have no idea why there are two PERLs
b. I can find no instructions on how to remove one version and
(hopefully) fix this issue.

Did you or some program you installed use cpan to install some modules? That's
what it looks like.  Either remove /usr/local/lib64/perl5 or rename it and see
if that fixes your problem.

When a similar thing happened after the F22, I did load/reload some modules via CPAN and that fixed that.

I have since discovered that modules can be installed using dnf (though this is pretty well disguised) and tried that just now.

A combination of that and renaming .so files in the /usr/local/ tree seems to haver fixed the immediate issue but leaves the potential for it to happen again next time.

I take it from your comment that CPAN puts things into /usr/local.
Can I just blow away all things PERL in /usr/local and then install any modules that go missing using dnf?

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen
