Re: peculiar problem when creating media as related media

I'd just like to add to Terence's email regarding this media
relating
problem...

We have a system running 10.3 that does not have this
problem, however, that
system was upgraded from 10.2 and was not a freshly
installed OS, so certain
CPAN modules may be different versions than one would end up
with on a
freshly installed OS.  Also, we've set up the VMware bric
image 10.3 which
does not exhibit this problem.  However, on ANY OS that we
have installed
10.3 on since last June or so, this problem pops up.  This
includes ubuntu,
fedora, and centOS... and this includes systems that have
been set up on
different hardware by myself, Ryan O'Toole, and Terence.

I can see how some bric users may not be experiencing this
problem, either
because they have a system that has been smoothly upgraded
from previous
versions of bric and so haven't got the bad version of some
CPAN module (if
that's in fact what's to blame)... or perhaps people who
have installed new
10.3 systems don't have this issue because they don't have a
staff that
regularly creates new media objects as relations on stories
or other media
objects...

In any case, does anyone out there have any idea why this is
happening?  Is
it happening to anyone else?

Best,
John D.

This happens on a "fresh" 1.10.3 install without
importing any  
templates or content?
