The typeinfo() call (in Sybase.pm) is coded to use sp_datatype_info to
accomodate varying datatype definitions that started showing up in 12.5
(wider varchar columns, etc).
That's why the 0.95 version works fine (datatypes are hard-coded) - as
sp_datatype_info obviously won't work when talking to a rep server.
What does your script do?
I've used DBD::Sybase with rep server a lot, and I haven't had this
problem...
