Re: [MacPerl] macPerl and DBI

Well, I tried building DBD::mysql.  After much hacking, I got it to build.
The big problem was first that the client libs were for a version of mysql
no longer supported by DBD::mysql.  But I got an older version that did
support it, and got pretty far ... until three needed symbols were not in
the client library.  Argh.  I tried commenting them out
(mysql_create_table, mysql_drop_table, and mysql_info; a hobbled module is
better than one that doesn't exist :) and it built.  Then I got this on
trying to use it:

# Can't load
'Bird:src:Pudge:pudgeprogs:perl:site_specific:MacPPC:auto:DBD:mysql:mysql'
for module DBD::mysql: # DynaLoader error [-2807, mysql--mysql_fetch_field].
File 'Bird:MacPerl Ÿ:lib:DynaLoader.pm'; Line 172

Sigh.  Does anyone have an idea what's wrong here?

(BTW, this is PPC only.)
