Re: Class::DBI and multiple foreign keys

(this is just an aside comment)

After reading an article on www.perl.com I was quite enthusiastic about Class::DBI and wanted to use it for projects, however trying to install it was somewhat difficult - it had numerous dependancies and took me quite a while to get going.

One other package is like this: DateTime. I once went on a world trip and using this fantastic module I calculated the local times, and sunrises and sunsets on each day in each city that I would be in! Fabulous! However installing this module is a huge effort because of the sheer number of dependencies.

It is sad because I would like to use these modules more often but just fear for needing to run my application on a system where installing a large number of modules may not be an option (such as websites).
