I am trying to build the everything engine on a clean box. I just build perl and I've been installing the required modules... Well I download Msql-Mysql-modules from everydevel's modules directory and when I perl Makefile.PL I get a warning saying that I need version XYZ of DBI or later to install the module... So I use CPAN.pm to install DBI. It tells me that DBI is up to date.

So is CPAN.pm on crack? Or is Msql-Mysql-modules to blame? Has anyone had this problem before?

Below is *exactly* the errors I'm recieving. Thanks. 


[root@japh Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2018]# perl Makefile.PL
Checking for DBI, 0.93 or later ...

Missing modules are available from any CPAN mirror, for example

   ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/modules/by-module
[root@japh Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2018]# perl -MCPAN -e 'install DBI'
