Bump!

It was pointed out to me (on perlmonks) that this is a known problem in some versions of dmake. Date::Manip can be installed manually using the following commands: c:> cpan Show quoted text
cpan> look Date::Manip::Date
Show quoted text
> perl Makefile.PL > dmake MAXLINELENGTH=300000 make > dmake MAXLINELENGTH=300000 make test > dmake MAXLINELENGTH=300000 make install
