Here are the directions that someone on this list gave to me.....I have no
idea what I am doing - I'm a newbie!

First, as root, run

perl -MCPAN -e shell

You'll go through a little configuration phase. Defaults for most everything
should be fine.

First, I suggest upgrading the Perl CPAN module, so enter:

install Bundle::CPAN

at the shell. This will download and install a ton of stuff....

quit out of the CPAN shell and run the top command again. Then install the
DBD::Pg and GD modules in the same way:

install DBD::Pg
install GD

(NOTE: You'll probably have to install DBI first, do 'install Bundle::DBI')

Did you remember to actually read the README file and follow the
instructions about setting environment variables, as it suggests?
