| Subject: | Failed test on Strawberry Perl 5.10.0.1 on Windows XP |
When I tried to install PAR::Packer on my machine running Strawberry
Perl 5.10.0.1 on Windows XP Service Pack 2 I got a failed test.
The test report is the following:
t/00-pod..................skipped: Set environment variable
PERL_TEST_POD=1 to test POD

Forcing the installation apparently solves the problem, because the pp
command is available. But if you use pp to build a Windows executable
and you move it to a machine without any Perl installed, when you try to
run it, you get an error message stating that perl510.dll is missing.
this is true also if you issue a command as simple as pp -e "print
'Hello World';" -o hello.exe
