cannot open Pg.pm

[Billy]

It's late. There's beer in the 'fridge. There's a few cheap cigars somewhere. My g/f's cigarettes are on the shelf. However, I'm on a diet and I quit smoking in the summer of '01. Everything was fine 'til yesterday. Then I decided to install DBD-Pg-1.13 on my RedHat box.

Installing DBD. the cpan script was giving me problems so, I downloaded it (and others before it) from cpan. When I ran "perl Makefile.PL" as a normal user I ran into the enviornment variable problem. This was corrected (marginally, I think) by "export POSTGRES_INCLUDE=/usr/include" which is where I found libpq-fe.h. (same for _LIB=/usr/lib for libpq.so)... (While this seems to function, I really need to determine where it is supposed to be done.)

The DBD-Pg-1.13 directory is owned by the normal user and the file Pg.pm exists there, owned by
the "normal user," bw.

From /root/.cpan/build/DBD-Pg-1.13....

The exact output is;
*
*[bw@roscoe DBD-Pg-1.13]$ perl Makefile.PL

Remember to actually read the README file !
OS: linux
Using DBI 1.30 installed in /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux/auto/DBI
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Could not open 'Pg.pm' : No such file or directory at (eval 8) line 6.

The system is RedHat 7.3 on an Intel box. Postgresql 7.2 is installed and running. A list of modules from cpan have been installed without problems including DBI-1.30.

What am I doing wrong...other than not drinking the beer and not smoking everything in the house?

PS: Noticing the output from the Makefile, I see it uses the DBI in /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux/auto. Yet I know it is installed at /root/.cpan/build/DBI-1.30.
Furthermore (as root) find -name Pg.pm returns;

../root/.cpan/build/DBD-Pg-1.13/Pg.pm
../usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux/Pg.pm
../usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux/DBD/Pg.pm

If I chmod one or both of the last two Pg.pm files shown above, would I get past the error msg?

Thanks,
Bill
