Camelbox installed the GNU tar and gzip. Both appear to be working correctly with Test-Harness-3.17.tar.gz and earlier builds. --------------------------------- C:\camelbox\.cpan\build\tmp-4908>tar --version tar (GNU tar) 1.12 Copyright (C) 1988, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

C:\camelbox\.cpan\build\tmp-Test>gzip --version gzip 1.2.4 (18 Aug 93) Compilation options: DIRENT SYS_UTIME STDC_HEADERS HAVE_UNISTD_H NO_CHOWN PROTO ASMV --------------------------------- I went directly to cpan.org and have downloaded each Test-Harness tarball back to 3.17. That is the last one with valid path information in it. 3.17_01 through 3.21 all come up with no paths in both WinZip and these GNU utilities. But neither tool has a problem with Test-Harness-3.17.tar.gz, Bundle-CPAN-1.858.tar.gz, CPAN-1.9402.tar.gz or Net-Pcap-0.16.tar.gz. It is obvious that something has changed. But how do I determine what? Bob McConnell -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
