Yes. but from the OP's comment "figuring out installation of Perl DBI
modules", it seemed to me that this was his first-time encounter with
DBI/DBD. And I just wanted to point out, that while he needs the underlying
DBD::mysql drivers for DBI to work, that, contrary to intuition, he would
need to install DBI first.
