This is a known isue (bug?) in some 8i releases. Check note 203317.1 on Metalink.
If you don't have access to Metalink, do the following:
Connect as SYS using svrmgrl (don't use SQL*Plus!!!) and rerun the following scripts:
1)catrepr.sql (Removes Replication related objects)
2)catrep.sql (Creates Replication related objects)
3)utlrp.sql (Recompile Invalid PL/SQL modules).
The basic reason for this problem is the fact that during the database creation some replication packages (that are also used by the IMPort) were created incomplete and invalid, and they can't be recompiled. And the culprit of the problem is the SQL*Plus, in which those scripts were run during instalation (just like suggested by the manuals), but its deffault buffer was too small for the creation of those packages. Using svrmgrl when creating them avoids those problems.

if you run cartepr you will also have to rerun catproc as well, cartepr whacks some objects created by catproc.
