DB_File is a perl module that is an interface to the Sleepycat Berkeley DB
database libraries. Thus the Berkeley DB libs and includes are a
prerequsite to DB_File.

That error means that your OS is lacking those libs and incs.
("db.h" is the primary include file from Berkeley DB.)

So get the Berkeley DB kit, either as a package for your platform or
directly from the source, http://sleepycat.com
