I need HELP bad!
I have never really had a problem installing perl modules either via CPAN or Self Install. However, I find myself back in this position with a new desktop system and my troubles are mounting. I am using a system with an Intel 3.06GHz processor with "HyperThreading" and a dual channel motherboard that simulates dual processors. I am telling you this because it may be part of the problem. Thank you in advance for any help you can give. In trying to install DBD::mysql I get the following error "as indicated by the last line of the next paragraph"..(missing separator). The next paragraph is the print of "Makefile" showing the line in question (83) which simply says SIT, an extraneous line that shouldn't be there.
