shp2mysql problems

[Paul Smith]

Hello All

When I run
./shp2mysql /path/to/shpfile/shpfilename (without the .shp extension) on a
SUSE box, I get

"Odd number of elements in hash assignment
at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/Geo/ShapeFile/Shape.pm line 30".

The offending line 30 in shape.pm reads
 my %args = @_;
Two empty tables are created.

I edited shp2mysql as follows(as per some posting I read from Matt, Lowell
etc)

use Geo::ShapeFile::Shape qw/:all/; #line 9
$shape = new Geo::ShapeFile::Shape $ARGV[0];

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Paul
