DBD:Pg for Windows (PostgreSQL+Perl)

From

Hello

I want to install Bugzilla on our intranet. I don't want to install MySQL just because of a bug tracking system so I was quite pleased to read that Bugzilla has declared full support for PostgreSQL. Yet I was unable to find the module that would make PostgreSQL 8.x work with Perl (which is Bugzilla based on) - neither in PostgreSQL installation nor on the web.
I believe share/contrib/ in PostgreSQL install directory would be nice place to put the compiled module in.

Meanwhile, has anyone working (ActiveState) Perl with some recent version of PostgreSQL on Windows, so you could send the Perl "DBD:Pg" module to me PLZ?
(I don't have any experience with Perl but I believe using PPM I would be able to install the module if I had one. :o)

Have a nice day

Is this on Win32? DBD::Pg is a perl module, you can get it from CPAN.
