Even so the error message is saying it can't locate DBD/pg.pm followed
by the include list as well as hinting that the DBD::pg package, which
provides the perl interface to postgresql, has not been fully installed.

If I was in your place I would run the perl CPAN stuff and reinstall the
DBD::pg package then verify that the pg.pm file is on the system and in
one of the include directories.
