I'm having trouble installing the perl module DBD specifically.  I found on
my CPAN cd the DBD module Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2208, tried to install it and
got errors, I discovered I needed DBI installed first.  So I found DBI-1.13
and did the following:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test

Made 100 connections in 0 wallclock secs...
test.pl done

DBI seemed to install ok.  Then I found DBD Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2210 and
did the following:
perl Makefile.PL
select 1) MySQL only
n - for install perl emulation
then
make
make test

then get output from make test:
...install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't load
'../blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so' for  module DBD::mysql:
../blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so: undefined symbol: uncompress at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/i386-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 169.
at (eval 1) line 3

dubious
 Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00)

make[1]: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255
make[1]: Leaving directory '/perlmods/Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2210/mysql'
make:  *** [test] Error\ 2

after the above errors even i tried executing the 'make install'.  Then I
tried a sample perl file using the 'use DBI' function to test the perl
module install w/ MySQL, and when I execute I get the same error:  undefined
symbol: uncompress at blah blah blah...

Please Help.  What am I doing wrong?  Do I need to do an un-install before
trying to re-install DBD?  Should I blow out Perl altogether and reinstall?
Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks in advance,

Chris Becker
