What exactly needs to be downloaded . I'm kind of not sure about it.

I have never heard of a 'bundle' in context with Perl but that may
be because I know little about Perl.

DBI can be got from
http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/DBI/DBI-1.53.tar.gz
and DBD-Pg is on
http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/DBD/DBD-Pg-1.49.tar.gz

A "bundle" is merely a collection of modules that are often used together. For example, installing "Bundle::DBI" installs a bunch of DBI drivers and tools.
