[rt-users] Installation Help - Perl module purgatory

[Luker, Joseph]

Can somebody help me interpret all this?  I'm new to Perl.  I've got the
dependencies test happy now with all but two of the modules:

[root at Kidd rt-3-0-8]# perl ./sbin/rt-test-dependencies --with-mysql
--with-modperl1 | grep MISS
        Apache::Request ...MISSING
        DBD::mysql 2.1018...MISSING
[root at Kidd rt-3-0-8]#


Here's the blowback from DBD::mysql

[root at Kidd rt-3-0-8]# perl -MCPAN -e 'install DBD::mysql'

There's no mysql_config or mysql.h on my system (RPM install) ???

And here's the blowback from Apache::Request
