[root at huachuca rt-2-0-11]# make dropdb
/usr/bin/perl	tools/initdb 'Pg	' '/usr/local/pgsql' 'localhost'
'' 'postgres	' 'rt2' drop
Database creation parameters:

DB_TYPE         = Pg	
DB_HOME         = /usr/local/pgsql
DB_HOST         = localhost
DB_DBA          = postgres	
DB_DBA_PASSWORD = <hidden>
DB_DATABASE     = rt2
Now dropping the RT2 database.
Enter the Pg	 password for postgres	: 
About to drop Pg	 database rt2.

Version info of some of the perl mods I suspect may be associated with the
problem.

DBI-1.201 
DBD-Pg-1.01
DBI-1.201.tar.gz
DBIx-DataSource-0.02
DBIx-SearchBuilder-0.48 

All of the perl mods were isntalled as per their readmes afaik.
