Perl Modules for Perl 5.12

[cah]

Solaris 11 doesn't provide a way to install a bundle of packages for everything.
Lots of things are missing. Headers, perl modules and others.

In order to make openwebmail to work, I had added "Text-Iconv-1.7" last Friday.
When I tried to get the online dictionary to work, I had to add the folloiwing perl modules before it works!!!

I can foresee there are still other files missing. This will have to be a complete testing cycle to catch all missing files.......

I knew there must be other missing perl modules.
When I tried to access the wedding site, it bombed out again.
This time, it complained about missing DBI.pm.
I went ahead and got the latest DBI-1.618.tar.gz and compiled and installed it.

Then, I tried again and it failed again asking for DBD/mysql.pm.
I then went to get DBD-mysql-4.020.tar.gz and compiled and installed it.

Then, it worked.

Who knows what are still missing.........
