That's a pretty old version of DBI - 20 releases out of date.

So, run on Solaris 10 and monitor which files gets used by your product.

Are you sure you are space-constrained enough to warrant worrying about it?
Won't it be easier for customers to do field upgrades if the installation is
of complete modules?

Kindly help us as we need to finalise on this quickly.

You might not need the Win32 stuff; you might not need the DBI headers (but
then again, you might if you ever needed to upgrade in the field). You
might not need ... but I think you're being penny-wise and pound-foolish.

Most probably, if the Perl works and the Oracle works on all three (and Perl
will; Oracle I won't answer for), then DBI and DBD::Oracle will too.

Will the Oracle database be installed in a fixed location on all machines?
