in reply to Using Perlbrew macOS impossible to install distributions

Follow-up. I hit this exact issue today. New Mac, wanted to try some signature stuff so needed to update perl. Picked 5.28. Failed at ../cpan/DB_File/t/db-hash.t, as reported. As 1nickt and kevbot suggest, brew install berkeley-db cleared the way for it to install cleanly.

    I encountered this same scenario today. brew install berkeley-db was the fix for me as well.
