Hi Dennis, You should be able to get cpanm by
sudo apt-get install cpanminus Does the version of DBI.pm you get from sudo apt-get install libdbi-perl Work for your needs? You should just be able to install the system package. The build problems you're seeing from cpan are likely related to arm being a less popular platform to build the module source on. Can you share your full build log as an attached file? C.J.
