That looks like a resolution failure in getaddrinfo, probably when trying to resolve the hardcoded ::1 loopback address. Is there anything peculiar about your ipv6 setup that would be causing that to fail? The error message isn't very helpful so I've just uploaded 0.61 that gives a better diagnostic in this case.

Hi, Sorry for the delay in responding. This seems to be an issue on every Ubuntu 12.x server I have. The default /etc/hosts file on all servers is: ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback Here's the output of another run on a different server: t/05-ipv6.t .................... 2/73 # Error in ->new: Address family for hostname not supported at t/lib/LSFServer.pm line 33. # Error in ->new: Address family for hostname not supported at t/lib/LSFServer.pm line 33. # Error in ->new: Address family for hostname not supported at t/lib/LSFServer.pm line 33. # Error in ->new: Address family for hostname not supported at t/lib/LSFServer.pm line 33. # Error in ->new: Address family for hostname not supported at t/lib/LSFServer.pm line 33. # Error in ->new: Address family for hostname not supported at t/lib/LSFServer.pm line 33. # Looks like you planned 73 tests but ran 5. t/05-ipv6.t ....................

I have the same line on my 12.04 machine and the tests all pass. Is there anything else in /etc/hosts that mentions ::1 or localhost? Show quoted text

That error message has the code EAI_ADDRFAMILY, whose entry in the getaddrinfo an page say "The specified network host does not have any network addresses in the requested address family." Some Googling suggests this error typical appears in invalid ipv6 configurations (see for instance http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5985470/ipv6-address-to-domain-name). Seems that the network stack fails to recognize ::1 as an address. Does running "ping6 ::1" work for you? (ping6 is in the iputils-ping package). If not, I'd poke around in /etc/sysctl.conf for anything suspicious, but otherwise searching about ipv6 troubleshooting in Ubuntu would be most helpful to you. Show quoted text

I would, but I don't have the rights. You might try the administrators at rt-cpan-admin@bestpractical.com.
