My program requires utf8_heavy.pl and unicore, which are in C:\Strawberry\perl\lib. The Win32 exe produced with pp cannot locate these in the cache, where they are expected in .../cache.../inc/lib The error message produced is: Can't locate utf8_heavy.pl in @INC (@INC contains: C:\Users\dieter\AppData\Local\Temp\par-646965746572\cache-4d767343882c5f20e3adcfbd6a84888f2e1680be\inc\lib C:\Users\dieter\AppData\Local\Temp\par-646965746572\cache-4d767343882c5f20e3adcfbd6a84888f2e1680be\inc CODE(0x24b02d4) CODE(0x24b04cc)) at C:/Strawberry/perl/lib/utf8.pm line 16. This used to work with pp run in perl 5.20; it does not work with pp run in perl 5.24. Don´t know about perl 5.22.

Have you tried packing with "pp -u ..."? Show quoted text

I guess that "requires" here is meant colloquially ("makes use of") and that your program does *not* literally "require 'utf8_heavy.pl'". Cheers, Roderich
