- Possible Source of Error #3 :

If you had already installed "libyaz-dev" before installing the ZOOM
Perl Module, then you may be behind a corporate firewall, and that may
be blocking the connection tests to Z3950 Servers (these connection
tests are done during the installation of the ZOOM Perl Module).

It that is the case, then you'll probably have to do a "force install"
of the Net::Z3950::ZOOM module, in a CPAN prompt / shell, like this:

# cpan

cpan[1]> force install Net::Z3950::ZOOM

Ricardo,
OK, just tried #3 and am back to the error I refered to that led to me
commenting out sections of zoom.pm:

Software error:
