I could not read the attachment with my mail reader. Can you tell me what
C compiler you are using? Are you using the Perl interpreter supplied by
Sun? If you are, reinstall Perl using the gcc compiler. Then try
installing DBI and DBD* also using gcc. Sun's Perl and C compiler spell
disaster when you are trying to upgrade or add modules... at least in my
experience.
