If you used the <option>--with-perl</option> option to configure, check

the install log to see whether the Perl module was actually installed.

If you've followed our advice to make the Postgres files be owned by

an unprivileged userid, then the Perl module won't have been installed,

for lack of write privileges on the Perl library directories. You can

complete its installation, either now or later, by becoming the user that

does own the Perl library (often root) (via <command>su</command>) and doing

<ProgramListing>

$ cd /usr/src/pgsql/src/interfaces/perl5

$ gmake install
