Well actually I just managed to resolve this issue. I do already have MySQL installed. I had to specify some flags while doing running the Makefile.PL, to specify the location of some MySQL header files that it was complaining about. I obtained the value of the flags by using the mysql_config. After that I did make and make install and everything went well. One thing again though. DBI once again got installed in some random directory inside ~/perl5/lib/perl5 and I had to manually drag it to ~/perl5/lib/perl5. I had in fact specified PREFIX also while running the Makefile.PL and it seems to have only partly heeded to it (it went inside ~/perl5/lib/perl5). Any ideas what's going on? Thanks so much for your help.
