Re: perl installation problem and installation of postgres from rpms

I don't remember what the errors I received were. I'll take a look at it
tonight and write tomorrow. How do I go about installing the DBD::Pg module?

What precise errors did you get on the build of the Perl module.

You might want to also look into installing DBD::Pg for use with DBI. I
usually use that rather than the 'native' Pg module.
