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

You may have to su to root to install the package
(Or you may want to run something like
o conf make_install_make_command 'sudo make'
