We recently installed Solaris 2.8 and upgraded to Perl 5.8.0.  When our
application users tried to use perl they got the message

 $ ./perl -e 'use DBI;'
Can't locate DBI.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/sun4-solaris /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/sun4-solaris
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at -e line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.
$

when i looked in the directory /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/sun4-solaris
there was nothing there,  yet in our corresponding 5.6.1 library the DBI.pm
module a bit more (5.8.0 lib has nothing).

does anyone have any ideas?

thanks
Joan
