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

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.
