Hi Monks! I'm new to Perl and am trying to set up perl DBI so I can get started with MySQL. I've run into a problem with DBI that arises during the make stage of the installation, and would greatly appreciate some help with solving the issue.

I am trying to install DBI v1.637 using Perl v5.18.2, on MacOS Sierra v10.12.6. However, the problem persists for other recent DBI versions, and occurs when using cpan or a tarball. I've included a copy of the makefile that is generated here: pastebin.com/mXaxUaYX and terminal output below after running the makefile and then make as sudo. Many thanks for your help
