SPUG: Some modules won't install gcc error

Top-posting, because inline would get lost.

The problem with DBD::mysql is that mysql_config is not in your PATH.  
This is either because MySQL is not installed, or because your PATH needs 
to be updated.  Here's the relevant bit of error from DBD::mysql:

-----------------
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 
76.

Cannot find the file 'mysql_config'! Your execution PATH doesn't seem
not contain the path to mysql_config. Resorting to guessed values!
-----------------

Looks like someone didn't clean up the double negative in the translation 
to English.  Oh well.

<Some dithering about which gcc, because I was tired.  I think it's more 
likely that /home/slade/scripts doesn't grant you execute permission, 
which I detail a bit further below.>

As for why gcc is giving you problems, have you confirmed with `which gcc` 
that the first gcc in your PATH is the one in /home/slade/scripts/ ?  It 
could be that another gcc is earlier in your path.  That seems likely.

You should echo $PATH and `which gcc`.

What happens if you run `/home/slade/scripts/gcc -v` ?  It should print 
out the gcc version.
</dithering>

Also, what are the permissions on /home/slade/scripts?  Do `ls -ld 
/home/slade/scripts`.  If that *directory* does not grant you execute 
access, then you will not be able to execute scripts within the 
directory, even if they are world-executable.  On reflection, this seems 
more likely.

I also need the modules for DBD::mysql and DBI to install.  I figure if I can correct the problems associated with installing these I'll understand what settings are needed in my cpan, makefile.pl, and build modules.
