Subject: Requires Net-DNS-0.48 - this should probably be documented
It fails to install if an existing (older) Net::DNS in installed. Also - is there any chance of getting some docs done? Even if it's just "go look at the tests", that might help some people. I know you've got better stuff to do with your time probably, but, it would be nice if some comments found their way into the code :-) ???

I have Net::DNS 0.40, and it works fine here. Perhaps there is a bug in a version between 0.40 and 0.48? Do you know which version you had before upgrading to 0.48? As a caveat, I am using a vendor version of Net::DNS, it may be different than the one on CPAN. Let me know the error, just in case. I will get the docs and comments done eventually. Thanks, Anthony

I did checked the Net::DNS changelog, and versions of Net::DNS prior to 0.34 will fail to work with Mail::DomainKeys. *** 0.34 6 Mar 2003 Applied David Carmean's patch for handling more than one string in a TXT RR's RDATA section. I have changed the Makefile.PL to reflect this, so if your old version of Net::DNS was prior to 0.34, this bug can most likely be closed now. Thanks for finding this! Anthony
