Searching for the module on metacpan goes to: https://metacpan.org/pod/Date::Time
which shows the module is part of the OO-DateTime distribution. There is also a
helpful link to its issues queue in the left sidebar.

However, I see that the last release was in 2000, so you may be out of luck
with regards to getting support for that module.  Have you considered switching to
https://metacpan.org/release/DateTime, which is excellent, as well as still
undergoing active development and support?
