When trying to add package DBD-oracle-1.15 to Perl version 5.6.1 (with update ) and DBI-1.43 i get this
$ perl makefile.pl *** Warning: Path separator characters (`|') in the current directory path (PERL_ROOT:[LIB.DBD-ORACLE-1_15]) may cause problems Unable to locate Driver.xst in perl_root:[lib.VMS_AXP.5_6_1]/auto/DBI perl_root:[lib]/auto/DBI perl_root:[lib.site_perl.VMS_AXP]/auto/DBI perl_root:[lib.site_pe rl]/auto/DBI /perl_root/lib/site_perl/auto/DBI ./auto/DBI at makefile.pl line 37 %SYSTEM-F-ABORT, abort $ Perl was installed from HP PCSI packages as published on their webpages.

This fix was found on the web, with Mr. Dan Sugalski as originator (thanks Dan), as having been needed in 1998 for building a much earlier version of the package... But a fix for the above mentioned problem has eluded me... Regards Jakob Snoer Nordic Processor Data Warehouse Handel Drift / 8612 Tlf 436736 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
