in reply to DBD::mysql on Solaris 10

5.10.1 isn't exactly new, try a newer one :)

Which compiler are you using? 

$ perl -V:cc
cc='gcc';

I suggest you get perl-5.14.2 and compile it using gcc , install it privately (do not install over system perl), then try installing mysql

    OK, I just installed Perl 5.14.2, with GCC I get a KPIC error message :/ I think I will reinstall the whole system and prepare it for just one C Compiler.
