Hi Folks! I cant pack Image::Info (from Gisele Aas) with in a par archive. Find attached a sample script, the module, my par exe and a tiff image for testing. The syntax is: "perl testimageinfo.pl test4C.tif" I have tried all options while packing, like -a -M -I etc. and got no sucess. While runtime of the exe I still get the error about the missing module. ## macbook$ testimageinfo test4C.tif Start getting image infos ... Can't parse image info: Can't locate Image/Info/TIFF.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /tmp/par-ademmler/ cache-68af4e4ede4dd2cf9a02e82990e685198e329703/inc/lib /tmp/par- ademmler/cache-68af4e4ede4dd2cf9a02e82990e685198e329703/inc CODE (0x19058c4) CODE(0x1905a18)) at (eval 16) line 3. ## ... mhhh Anny help and hints would be perfect! Thanks to all Alex

this is not a bug in PAR but in Module::ScanDeps. You use Image::Info which uses Image::Info::TIFF in some weird, dynamic way which isn't picked up by the Module::ScanDeps dependency scanner. You can circumvent the problem by adding the following to your code: sub _hints_for_par { require Image::Info::TIFF; # possibly also "require Image::TIFF;" } You needn't call that sub. It's just there for the dependency scanner. Anyhow, Module::ScanDeps 0.70 which hasn't been released yet will automatically detect the dependency on Image::Info::* if Image::Info is loaded. Steffen
