 Pardon me if this has been covered before; I can't reach the 
 archives, and 
 I'm the impateint type. ;-) 

 For some reason, when I ran my perl Makefile.PL command, I 
 got these 
 errors: 
 
 DBI object version 1.20 does not match $DBI::VERSION 1.15 at 
 /usr/libdata/perl5/i386-openbsd/5.6.0/DynaLoader.pm line 219.

I vaguely recall that the directory DBI gets installed in changed
slightly at some point, so you have to manually delete all traces
of the old DBI, especially the parts in those 'auto' directories
under the lib directory.

HTH,
Douglas Wilson

Sounds like it is like FreeBSD, which has perl libs installed in 
/usr/libdata/perl.  DBI probably installed into /usr/local/lib/perl5 or
/usr/lib/perl5.  You could upgrade perl to 5.6.1 and install it into
your directory of choice and have a newer version of perl :-)

 Any idea what typically gets installed? It's kind of hard to weed out the 
 old without knowing where it is. 
 
 Thanks,

DBI Version Problem

[Alex Kirk]

Pardon me if this has been covered before; I can't reach the archives, and

I'm using Perl 5.6.0 on OpenBSD 2.9; it's worked quite well for me so far. 
After just installing MySQL 3.23.37, I figured the smart thing to do to work 
with it would be to get the appropriate Perl modules installed. So I went 
out and grabbed DBI-1.20, which installed just fine, and then 
DBD-mysql-2.0902. 

For some reason, when I ran my perl Makefile.PL command, I got these 
errors: 

DBI object version 1.20 does not match $DBI::VERSION 1.15 at 
/usr/libdata/perl5/i386-openbsd/5.6.0/DynaLoader.pm line 219.

I'm guessing that OpenBSD installed DBI-1.15 with Perl on the basic system 
install. In any case, how would I go about fixing this? Like I said, 
DBI-1.20 installed just fine, with make test giving no errors. 

Thanks,
