installing DBI from cpan and getting this...

what the hell is it trying to do to /usr/bin anyhow? should it not just install into /usr/lib/perl/site/blah ??? Is there not a package I can install for this apart from compiling the cpan one? and just generally :( test.pl done TIMB/DBI-1.605.tar.gz make test -- OK Running make install
