Check whether you need to import any symbols. Sometimes, a set of subroutines is always exported; while at other times you need to specify what you need to import at the "use" statement.

For example, if you look at the examples at the top of Carp - perldoc.perl.org, the "croak" method is exported automatically, while "cluck" needs an explicit import.

For what needs to be imported or not, you'll need to read the module source code, or you ask the maintainer of that module. Typically, if you don't mind the hassle, you can always specify the full package name (e.g. Carp::cluck("XXXX") in the above example) and avoid all those import mess. In my opinion, this is usually a good thing.
