Re: perl installation problem and installation of postgres from rpms

Thanks for the advice Brett!

I found a distribution of an RPM for DBD::Pg at:
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/contrib/libc6/i386/DBD-Pg-0.73-1.i386.html

I'll try that tonight. This module is a little bit different. Runs like
standard DBI module I guess. We'll get this figured out one way or another.

Thanks again.

Best way is to use CPAN and get the main DBI module there, and any drivers
you want to use (Pg, mysql, etc.) You should read up on how DBI works
before you use it.
