  The "No such file or directory" error message is related to the sybase 
ocs libs themselfs not
  
/usr/local/apps/perl-5.6.0/lib/site_perl/5.6.0/PA-RISC2.0/auto/Sybase/CTlib/CTlib.sl 
which is
  just what glues them into perl. If you run ldd 
/usr/local/apps/perl-5.6.0/lib/site_perl/5.6.0/PA-RISC2.0/auto/Sybase/CTlib/CTlib.sl
  it should give the same error message. You need to run chatr $file to 
see where CTLIB.sl thinks the sybase libs are. chatr
  will also tell you whether the location of the sybase libs is hard 
coded or if SHLIB_PATH is enabled. If shlib path is enabled
  you should be able to get things working by adding the directory the 
12.5.3 libs are in to the SHLIB_PATH environmental
  variable. After doing this perl should/could/may work. If not then its 
probably easiest to just recompile and link your perl modules.




 Thanks
