[ic] mysql a requirement for IC?

[Jeff Carnahan]

} Is it a -requirement- for IC that mysql - or at least the Perl mysql
} module - be installed, even if you use the default database?  Maybe to
} satisfy a "require " somewhere?
}

Nope. Not at all, Interchange will function just fine with text or DBM based
data tables. There is no requirement for MySQL or any associated modules be
installed.

However, Interchange may require the DBI bundle, as DBI facilitates access
to many types of databases, including text, DBM, MySQL and others. I'm
fairly certain you will need to have that installed.

My suggestion is to install Bundle::Interchange. It will take care of all
the dependencies for you. It can easily be installed with the following
one-liner:

perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::Interchange'
