Hi folks!

I have a question about the PostgresSQL 8.2.msi installer for Windows and if
it really installs DBD-Pg package?

To be more specific, in the last phase of installation I can check PG/pgsql,
PG/Perl, PG/Python and PG/Perl (untrusted). But does any of these options
correspond to DBD-Pg? And if so, where and what is installed? I've tried to
check two options related to Perl, but I can't see anything gets installed,
not in my C:\Program\GNU\Perl directory, nor in my C:\Program\GNU\PostgreSQL
path. Is something supposed to be installed if I check these options?

====

I'm really asking because althought there is a PPM repository containing
DBD-Pg at University of Winnipeg (
http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/package.xml), installing from there
causing Perl to crash when connecting to the postgres server. Googling
around, I found a similar problem (see
http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=568380) but no resolution (perhaps it is
related to different build options used when compiling from sources.)

Thanks for any hints!
Perrog
