gnump3d "Could not create the listening socket..."
 
Previously gnump3d worked fine, but now something is broken. I'm not sure if this started after 'pacman -Syu' (so I'm using Arch Linux)

No matter in what port I try to set gnump3d, it echoes

Code:

Couldn't create the listening socket for receiving incoming
 requests upon

  Perhaps the port XXXX is already in use?

  This is the error message the system returned:

    No such file or directory

Someone in Ubuntu forums having the same problem and was advised to apt-get remove --purge (purge removes config files, I think), so I tried removing (rm -rf) /var/log/gnump3d, /var/cache/gnump3d, /etc/gnump3d & pacman -R gnump3d (tried --nosave option too), but this didn't help.

pacman -Syu gave some "already exists in filesystem" errors concerning Perl packages, and I added -f option to force overwriting those. I think gnump3d uses perl modules, because there is a directory /usr/lib/perl5/current/gnump3d with contents

Code:

IP.pm        Request.pm    base64.pm    files.pm      lang/        mp4info.pm    plugins/      sorting.pm    url.pm       
MD5.pm        WMA.pm        config.pm    filetypes.pm  mp3info.pm    ogginfo.pm    readtags.pm  tagcache.pm

Is there anything I can do?
