I think it would be better to do the 1. but to make it easy you might install Devel::TraceSubs and add something like:
use Devel::TraceSubs;
open my $_LOG, ">> $0-Postgres.log";
my $_dbg = Devel::TraceSubs->new(
verbose => 0,
pre => '',
post => '<',
level => '',
params => 0,
logger => sub {
my ($package, $filename, $line, $subroutine, $hasargs,
$wantarray, $evaltext, $is_require, $hints, $bitmask) = call
+er(1);
return if $_[2] eq '<' or $filename =~ m{Postgres.pm$};
print $_LOG "Called $_[5] in $filename at $line\n";
},
);
$_dbg->trace(
'Postgres::'
);
on top of the scripts and run them. It should create a report with all the places where you call the Postgres.pm's functions/methods. Of course you may need to run the scripts several times to make sure all branches are covered, but still this should help in preparing the list of places you need you change.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
