It's a module, and not supposed to be placed in the same directory as
the script. The best you can do is to install XML::Handler::YAWriter
properly, e.g. using CPAN.pm.
Another option is to create a directory XML in
/usr/perl5/site_perl/5.005, then create a subdirectory Handler in the
XML directory and place YAWriter.pm there. Then you should have:
/usr/perl5/site_perl/5.005/XML/Handler/YAWriter.pm
