I'm not a Perl person, so I don't know if this helps or is irrelevant:

It shows how to use DBD::DB2, but it looks like it uses an outdated version, with a broken installation link.

AS/400 Fans,

I've been using various packages available from IBM's yum repository on some
LPARs running 7.2. I can't seem to find a DBD::DB2 Perl module in IBM's yum
repository. Is one available anywhere that's suitable for use in the above
environment?

If not, does anyone have any tips on building DBD::DB2 from source under the
above environment? I have a Perl local::lib set up and have installed a
handful of other CPAN modules there. DBD::DB2 needs a DB2_HOME environment
variable pointing to where DB2 is installed. Where would that be on an IBM
i running 7.2?
