Subject: cygwin: Problem in ExtUtils::Install causes MakeMaker to be unusable
The problem described in http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32813 leads to severe problems if ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.42 is installed on a cygwin installation. With the broken ExtUtils::Install it is not possible to install any module distribution anymore, even not a fixed ExtUtils-MakeMaker or ExtUtils-Install distribution. One needs to make sure that the patched ExtUtils::Install is used while doing "make pm_to_blib" and "make install"; this can be done by using "PERL5OPT=-Ilib make ..." resp. "PERL5OPT=-Iinc make ..." or so. Regards, Slaven
Updated MakeMaker's bundled ExtUtils::Install to 1.45
