Subject: | Error-Pure distribution cannot be extracted on Win32 platform |
Extracting the Error-Pure distribution on Win32 gives the following error:
Could not create directory 'C:\perl\cpanplus\5.12.3\build\Error-Pure-
0.01\t\Error::Pure::Error' for 'Error-Pure-0.01/t/Error::Pure::Error/':
mkdir C:\perl\cpanplus\5.12.3\build\Error-Pure-0.01\t\Error::Pure::.:
Invalid argument; The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is
incorrect at C:/perl/perl/lib/Archive/Tar/File.pm line 458
The reason is that all the subdirectories under '/t' contain colons (:),
which is not allowed on the Windows platform. On Windows, the colon is
used to indicate the driver letter (C:\perl).
I would propose to rename the directories to something like 'Error-Pure-
Error'.
