Problems installing DBI::mysql

Hi there

I'm trying to install Request Tracker which makes use of a few perl =
modules including the DBI::mysql module. I am trying to install it =
manually since I have also been unable to install it using CPAN.When I =
run the Perl Makefile.PL command I can see that the mysql_config command =
is working (after adding it to the path) since it displays the --cflags =
and --libs directories where it should.The testdb and all the rest are =
all set to default.
After this I get a line saying :
Unsuccessful stat on filename containing newline at =
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 97.

This line is repeated a few times and then a messag saying : Multiple =
copies of Driver.xst found...

It then writes the makefile, but when I run make test it exists with the =
missing seperator. Stop. error

Can anybody shed some light on the subject, I'm very frustrated since I =
don't know where to start looking...

Thanx
LeRoux

Try a google search on "ExtUtils Liblist Kid DBD mysql". I'd bet it is the
problem with Red Hat and UTF characters, which vanishes if you do an

export LANGUAGE=C
