Hi! There is an unimportant warnings issued when using perl 5, version 12, subversion 2 (v5.12.2) built for MSWin32-x64-multi-thread. It's "Warning: prerequisite perl 5.004 not found.". It does not affect the installation. Please find attached the full log. More info: OS: Win 7 x64 Perl: Strawberry Perl hth, Alex

Message body not shown because it is not plain text.

Strangely this appears to be an artefact (bug/something) in MakeMaker's handling of deps and installation. The requirement is correct (although actually the version of perl needed might well be 5.6 - certainly for some of the boilerplate tests)., but the warning on build is not correct. I have rolled a fix for this into my dist release stuff - now uses Module::Build to do the build/install - that squashes the warning on my system (I hadn't noticed it before since cpanminus hid it from me anyhow). I'm doing some other rearranging of the code and will probably push a release out shortly. The change that resolves this is actually in my dist zilla config - see https://github.com/nigelm/dist-zilla-pluginbundle- nigelm/commit/bf51693a45bfda6094f61037e056dc5798863266
