Yeah, that link looks good. You can grep your Makefile.PL and
compare your path to the mysql header files to where they exist on
your system. I bet that is the problem, make can't find your mysql
header files.
Except that mysql header files have nothing to with compiling DBI.
You're thinking about DBD::mysql.
Good point. I just assumed that we were talking about mysql here.
I suggest bypassing CPAN and running make manually. Use CPAN as
shortcut to get that directory though:
$ sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'shell' (or just sudo cpan)
cpan> look DBI
DBI-1.59$ perl Makefile.PL
DBI-1.59$ make
DBI-1.59$ exit
When you run the 'make' command you will get some output that
should explain what the problem is.
The way described above is the right way to go - it is the logical
next step.
