Ah,
Thanks so much Carson. The issue ended up being that our sysadmin installed
Perl modules that were of a version that was incompatible with the version
of Perl running with Maker. Once I installed a virtual environment with the
appropriate Perl and Perl modules that were happy to work together these
errors went away.
Thanks again!
