I think that means that there is no pre-compiled version of DBD::DB2; you
will need to be able to compile it for yourself.

Alternatively, it means your network configuration is such that PPM/PPD does
not work.  However, it is much more likely that the module is not
available.  Use CPAN to obtain it.  The current version appears to be 1.78,
from January 2010.
