Upgrading to latest Rose Bundle has broken Rose::HTML::Text

[James Masters]

Today I upgraded my Rose installation to the latest stuff to try to
resolve a problem with Rose::DB::Object. I just did this in CPAN by
typing "install Bundle::Rose" which seemed to work. But now when I try
to run my module that was previously working fine, it crashes
horribly. Disaster (for me anyway)!! I may be wrong but it doesn't
seem to relate to my code but to some problem within Rose that I don't
understand:
Can't locate object method "valid_html_attrs" via package

Did all the modules pass all tests? So far, I have no failing reports
for RHTMLO version 0.601 from CPAN testers:

That makes me think there was some sort of installation issue. Maybe
the old versions are still installed too? Can you even load the
Rose::HTML::Text module?

% perl -MRose::HTML::Text -e 0

I have just tried to run

> % perl -MRose::HTML::Text -e 0

It ran appeared to complete but with no errors and no output at all.
I am on Windows XP (he said, apologetically); maybe that's an issue.

Okay, that's correct. Now I guess try to build up from there (or
downwards from your actual code) until you get a minimal script that
reproduces your error.
