Subject: | Ancient Module::Install prevent build on win32 |
Hi,
the version of Module::Install included in version 1.18 is ancient.
Please consider a new release with a *current* Module::Install (0.62?).
The included version is not compatible with ActivePerl 5.8.8 build 817
which is the current stable build.
Contact me if you need more details.
Just in case you wonder, upgrading Module::Install is a matter of
installing the curren version and removing the old inc/ subdirectory
from the distribution. You can just do this:
cpan install Module::Install
(fetch the current Scalar::List::Utils)
tar -xzf Scalar-List-Utils-1.18.tar.gz
cd Scalar-List-Utils-1.18
rm -rf inc
perl Makefile.PL
(inc is rebuilt using the current Module::Install)
make manifest
(correct manifest by hand if necessary)
make
make test
make dist
Thanks,
Steffen
