Hello,

I got (on Fedora 12):
- perl-5.10.0
- perl-Archive-Zip-1.30

I do not have IO::Handle nor IO::Seekable installed (I cannot find any
references to these ones in the documentation ; are they mandatory?).

Well, I feel terribly sorry... But I've made a mistake :-(

The issue appears also on command line... I had ommited the space
between '-c' and the value during my tests...

Anyways, error is exactly the same:
-bash-4.0$ /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_zipCreate -h localhost -c 5
-n1 -s / /etc/httpd/conf.d -t > test.zip
Can't locate object method "tell" via package "IO::Handle" at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/Archive/Zip/Member.pm line 746.
