Fink ( http://fink.sourceforge.net/ ) had a ready to go port for DBI
and most DBD modules. I'd recommend using that to get started with your
install.

thanks for your answer, here is the output of my terminal:

    I see you're using perl 5.008001 on darwin-thread-multi-2level,
okay.
    Remember to actually *read* the README file!
    Use  'make' to build the software (dmake or nmake on Windows).
    Then 'make test' to execute self tests.
    Then 'make install' to install the DBI and then delete this working
    directory before unpacking and building any DBD::* drivers.

The information in the above is good, as far as the arguments to use
when running 'perl Makefile.PL' goes. But, when it speaks of editing
the generated Makefile, it is incorrect. Editing the generated Makefile
is a band-aid over the symptoms, not a real solution to the problem.

The correct solution was posted here by Ed Moy (Apple's Perl guy), and
is in the list archives here:
