Then I guess either you're typing it wrongly, or you have more than
one copy of Tr.pm on the system and you're modifying the wrong one.

What happens if, on the command line, you type the SAME full path to
traceroute that you edited into Tr.pm?  Please _cut_and_paste_ both
the command you type, and the output, into your mail when you reply.
That will avoid worries about typos.

Please type this at the command line:

perl -e 'system "traceroute oss.oetiker.ch";'

and let me know what happens.
