perl installation problem

Hello all.

I am having trouble getting my perl installation to work properly.

when i originally built postgres i used the "--with-perl" option at the
configure step.

whenever I try to run a perl program it tells me that Pg.pm is not included in
my @INC variable.  I tried pushing the directory into @INC before I ran the
program and it then tells me that it can't find the module.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dax Duskin

Did you install the Perl module that is in src/interfaces/perl?  You need
to be root to install that.  It doesn't get installed if you are not root.
I usually build the Perl module separately from the main build.
