Re: Need some help -- trying ot install Sybperl

There seems to be something wrong with today....
I managed to install Sybase::CTlib correctly with the hitns from Michael, 
so my next attempt is DBD::Sybase. Here I get a compilation error about a 
missing 'my_perl' symbol. I've googled and searched in the mailing list 
archive but I cannot find an answer so far.

In the dialog I chose not to use chained mode, and as recommended to use 
the normal libraries (instead of the threaded ones).

Any hints much appreciated!
