How to Downgrade Perl Module (Mason)

RT Users

I have to work on an existing RT system but in order for me to ensure that i
did not break anything, I have been working on building a development RT
system.

The installation is now complete but i keep having the following error.

System error
error: mkdir /opt/rt3/var/mason_data/obj/3906979773: Permission denied
at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.4/HTML/Mason/Compiler/ToObject.pm line 102
context: …
82: # whether they should generate a full stack trace (confess() and
cluck()) 83: # or simply report the caller’s package (croak() and
carp()), respectively. 84: # confess() and croak() die, carp() and
cluck() warn. 85:
86: sub croak { die shortmess @_ } 87: sub confess { die longmess @_
} 88: sub carp { warn shortmess @_ } 89: sub cluck { warn longmess
@_ } 90:
Now, i have searched through previouse threads and i have seen the soluotion
as downgrading Mason 1.30 that i have now to 1.28.

PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP ON THIS, I DID NOT KNOW HOW TO DOWNGRADE TO 1.28.

Thanks

Download the CPAN source and follow the instructions within the tarball.
Usually perl Makefile.pl; make; make test; make install
http://backpan.cpan.org/modules/by-module/HTML/HTML-Mason-1.28.tar.gz
That normally does the trick
