installation error, multiple copies of Driver.xst

I am trying to install DBD::mysql and I am getting this warning after doing
perl Makefile.PL:
Multiple copies of Driver.xst found in:
/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/auto/DBI
/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /auto/DBI at
Makefile.PL line 295
Using DBI 1.43 (for perl 5.008 on x86_64-linux-thread-multi) installed
in /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/auto/DBI

When I do and make test, ALL tests fail.

I guess its using DBI in the wrong place. How can I tell it to use DBI
in /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /auto/DBI ?

thanks,
M

That means you have parts of a previous DBI installation laying around.
The best thing is to remove *all* DBI related parts (by searching for
files called DBI.* or directories called DBI) manually and reinstall DBI.
