The main dbase independent module is called DBI.  The dbase
specific drivers are of the form DBD::DBase.  Hence the MySQL
version is DBD::MySQL.  The official CPAN mirrors seem to
only go back as far as 0.90, I found a 0.73 at one of the
rpmfind mirrors.  I'm sure a little work with one of the
search engines will turn up DPD-Pg-0.69.
