Hi,
I am using bioperl-1.2.2 and getting these warning message when using 
the Bio::Biblio module.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use Bio::Biblio;
++++++++++++++++++++++

Just using that module generates following warning messages
=================================================================
Use of uninitialized value in sprintf at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Bio/DB/BiblioI.pm line 90.

===================================================================

Other than that any script using that module returns the error 
"Unexpected Content-Type '' returned". Even the one liners like
  perl -MBio::Biblio -e 'print join ("\n", @{ new Bio::Biblio->find 
("brazma")->get_all_ids })'
    perl -MBio::Biblio -e 'print new Bio::Biblio->find ("Java")->find 
("perl")->get_count'

gives the same error.

Any idea/suggestions.
