Issue resolved. For anybody else who runs into this problem here is what I did.
1. went to ftp.suse.com and navigated to /pub/suse/9.0/suse/i586.
2. I downloaded zlib-devel-1.1.4-232.i586.rpm
3. rpm -Uvh zlib-devel-1.1.4-232.i586.rpm
4. then I did the perl Makefile.PL, make, make
I am on suse 9.0.
using cpan perl module (perl -MCPAN -e shell)
and install DBD::mysql
obtained the following error:
An error occurred while linking the DBD::mysql
driver. The error message seems to indicate that you
dont have a libz.a or a libza.so
Can anybody suggest a possible fix?
