Wow! I have installed from source, i have installed from rpm and i have
found out that installing from cpan does not work with suse/SLES9. I
have re-downloaded the tarball and the zip file. I have rebuilt the rpm
using rpmbuild -tb <filename> and nothing is working. I have installed
from the install discs which installs Sa 2.64 and used the "upgrade"
option, when installing from rpm, i always get this:
ERROR(InstTarget:E_RpmDB_subprocess_failed)
