Hello:

RH9 + MySQL-4.0.21

Couple of days ago, I posted a message indicating that I was getting errors
when I install Perl modules. I did not include the error, so here it is;

        % perl -MCPAN -e shell
        Note: Answer "no" to auto-configure perl.
        cpan> install Bundle::CPAN
        cpan> install Data::Dumper
        cpan> install Bundle::DBI
        cpan> install Bundle::DBD::mysql

After I enter the last/above "cpan>" command, there are number of output
lines & then this error:
---------------

---------------

I must admit, I am pretty new to installing PERL modules. This is all new to
me. I appreciate if someone can explain what is going on, what there error
messages mean & how to fix it?

I have been to PERL official site but these error messages seem to be
unique.

Thanks in advance.
