Thank you Chad and sorry if I sent the reply to you to your personal address.
Before I do that, I have another question.
I normally install and update MySQL from source manually whenever the new
version is released. Now, if I install DBD-mysql from the Ubuntu Repository
rather than from the source, would it cause any problems with the latest
version of MySQL?
No.
Thank you very much

I think this is what I should be using to install DBI and DBD-mysql.
But as I mentioned to John before that I think I need to get rid of
DBI-1.641 first before running the command you suggested. please
correct me if I'm wrong.
Well, it doesn't seem like that DBI installation is even doing
anything. But yes, you should remove it, just to get rid of
the clutter. I would just run this:
rm -r /root/perl5
Then install DBI and DBD-mysql from your distro's packaging system.
They'll be put in the correct place (one of the perl locations under
/usr/share or /usr/lib), and then spamassassin and the others will be
able to use them.

what operating system are you on? isn't there a DBI and such in the
OS package repository?
for instance, on a RHEL/CentOS/Fedora type system, I'd use...
sudo yum install perl-DBI perl-DBD-MySQL
of course, for a different Linux distribution, or another OS
entirely, both the command and the package names are probably
different.
on Debian and related distros:
sudo apt-get install libdbi-perl libdbd-mysql-perl
