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. Here is my PERL installation sequence:

        % 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> install Bundle::DBD::mysql" command,
there are number of output
lines & then this error:
---------------
>Using DBI 1.43 (for perl 5.08 on i386-linux-thread-multi) installed
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBI
>Writing Makefile for DBD::mysql
>Makefile:89: *** missing seprator. Stop
   /usr/bin/make --NOT OK
>Running make test
 (other lines but .........)
---------------

I received several replies & suggestions. Most repondent said that maybe I
was using a BAD mirror site & other said to download the "DBD::mysql" module
& installing manually. Well I just did that and got the same errors.

First I downloaded DBD::mysql (DBD-mysql-2.9004.tar.gz)module from
www.cpan.org web site & followed the instructions for manual install. I got
the same error message. Then I downloade one older module
(DBD-mysql-2.9003.tar.gz)& tried doing a manual install. Same Error
">Makefile:89: *** missing seprator. Stop".

I have looked "line 89" in "Makefile". I can't tell "what septator is
MISSING. Any help is highly appreciated.
