Description Arturo Cisneros 2002-10-06 14:31:38 UTC 
emerge DBI installs   DBI insto /usr/lib/5.6.1   instead of /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1
   causing DBD-mysql to fail because DBI isn't in Perl's @INC.
Comment 1 Arturo Cisneros 2002-10-06 17:01:14 UTC 
Upon closer inspection, it's not just DBI..

Comment 2 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-10-06 19:48:48 UTC 
Are you working from a fresh ISO? Or have you emerged recently? The reason I ask
is that this bug was resolved a few weeks ago in an update to the
ExtUtils-MakeMaker module, and then resolved at the source in the perl 5.6.1-r7
ebuild. If you installed these modules prior to either update, or are working
from a fresh ISO, please let me know. 

To resolve this, you will need to either re-emerge dev-perl/ExtUtils-MakeMaker
(which is a requried depend for anything using the perl-modules eclass) or you
will need to update your perl to -r7. You will then need to re-emerge the
modules listed below.

Ok. I must have missed the ExtUtils-MakeMaker bug somehow.  I just re-emerge'd
it and the modules and everything appears to be in it's place.  Thanks.  Sorry
for the confusion.
