in reply to Is DBI->data_sources($db_driver) useless?
Another example from a debian box:
DBM DBI:DBM:f_dir=., DBI:DBM:f_dir=.X11-unix, DBI:DBM:f_dir=.ICE-u +nix ExampleP dbi:ExampleP:dir=. File DBI:DBM:f_dir=., DBI:DBM:f_dir=.X11-unix, DBI:DBM:f_dir=.ICE-u +nix Proxy Sponge mysql
The mysql driver might have been able to find /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock, but obviously it didn't. And I have to confess I don't know why .X11-unix and .ICE-unix (I guess this referes to the socket dirs in /tmp) turned up as DBM data sources
