Description chris strom 2003-09-11 07:25:28 UTC
There is no ebuild in portage for DBD::Sybase.  I will attach an ebuild that I
have based on DBD::mysql.

Comment 2 Eric Sammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-01-17 08:16:10 UTC
The policy on perl modules in Gentoo is that they are only specifically included in the portage tree if they are a dependency of an app or they provide utilities. Unless I'm mistaken, this doesn't meet these requirements, and if that is the case, g-cpan.pl should be used for installation instead.

Thanks for the submission anyway.
