Subject: Failed to install Sys::Filesystem with Strawberry Perl 5.12.1 - missing dependency Win32::DriveInfo
Hi, I could not install Sys::Filesystem because dependent package Win32::DriveInfo was not installed. I installed Win32::DriveInfo and then Sys::Filesystem is installed. I am running Strawberry Perl 5.12.1 at Win XP. Please add package Win32::DriveInfo as dependency in installation of Sys::Filesystem, when installing at Win32 platform.

Win32::DriveInfo is a prerequisite for Win32 installs - see Build.PL. I expect an error of your installation. Please verify with a fresh Strawberry Perl without any additional modules installed.

Hi, I'll arrange for hardware and let you know if we could reproduce this issue. Thanks, Yogesh Sawant

Why do you need additional hardware for that? Simply use another directory (and cleanup your user's cpan cache). /Jens
That might me the same reason as RT#62249 - can you retry with 1.400 and tell me whether it works or not?
