    What version of RH are you using? Inquiring user(s) want(s) to know.

    The Needs of the World and my Talents run parallel to infinity.
      Sorry, forgot to say I'm using RH9. See item 4) Section 'KNOWN PROBLEMS' of the INSTALL.html that comes with the DBD-mysql-2.9003.tar.gz package. (I couldn't get it to install thru CPAN at all!!)

      Incidentally, I had trouble installing Lingua::Stem.PM thru CPAN again because of malformed UTF-8 characters. UTF-8 seems to be the default on RH8&9
