Cannot find ODBC driver

Hi,  I am hoping someone here recognizes this problem:

I have installed unixODBC for use as a driver manager for DBD::ODBC.   
However, when I run the command: 'cpan DBD::ODBC' I end up with the  
following error:

Hmm...I cannot find an ODBC driver manager that I recognize.
...And I know about these drivers:
         Microsoft ODBC, adabas, easysoft, empress, esodbc, informix,
         intersolve, iodbc, sapdb, solid, udbc, unixodbc
Warning: No success on command[/usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL]
CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.62)
Running make test
   Make had some problems, won't test
Running make install
   Make had some problems, won't install

Perhaps the problem is that the ODBCHOME env var is set wrong?  I  
have tried the following:

export ODBCHOME=/usr/bin
export ODBCHOME=/etc

both yield the same results...  Could someone make a recommedation?   
Thanks!!
