Hello Monks

I know I've been faced with this situation before. And I apologize for having to come to you again for it. I hope that I heave learned enough from my mistakes in providing information that we can arrive at a solution this time.

I am attempting to compile the DBI and DBD::mysql CPAN modules under solaris 10 i386 and not getting very far with it.

I've downloaded the modules from CPAN and am using perlgcc Makefile.PL (the preferred solaris method) as opposed to perl Makefile.PL.

Here is what I get. The configure portion goes fine, but the make portion blows up the process and I can't proceed from there. Forgive the length of the output I hope that it will aid in troubleshooting.

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Have /usr/perl5/5.8.4/lib/Sun/Solaris/PerlGcc
Want /usr/perl5/5.8.4/lib/i86pc-solaris-64int
Your perl and your Config.pm seem to have different ideas about the 
architecture they are running on.
Perl thinks: [PerlGcc]
Config says: [i86pc-solaris-64int]
This may or may not cause problems. Please check your installation of 
+perl 
if you have problems building this extension.

    I see you're using perl 5.008004 on i86pc-solaris-64int, okay.
    Remember to actually *read* the README file!
    Use  'make' to build the software (dmake or nmake on Windows).
    Then 'make test' to execute self tests.
    Then 'make install' to install the DBI and then delete this workin
+g
    directory before unpacking and building any DBD::* drivers.

OK that seems to go fine. Yet when I run a make I run into the following problem. I think I may be missing some libraries
