Re: DBD-DB2 install issue openSUSE 13 64bit

From the messages you show when running Makefile.PL, it looks like perl is not the interpreter being used.

linux-sy4t:/home/gman/Downloads/DBD-DB2-1.85 # ./Makefile.PL
./Makefile.PL: line 8: use: command not found
./Makefile.PL: line 9: use: command not found
./Makefile.PL: line 10: use: command not found
./Makefile.PL: line 13: use: command not found
./Makefile.PL: line 15: syntax error near unexpected token `('
./Makefile.PL: line 15: `my %opts = ('

what happens when you explicitly use perl as your interpreter? (Note this is the the usual way for Makefile.PL)
