 Hi tools,
 I ran into a bug with cpan last week and just found the workaround. To help
anyone else with the same issue I moved the old Ximian CPAN page into
the wiki and updated it slightly:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/CPAN_install
There are stale links to the old page, at least here:
http://tools.openoffice.org/dev_docs/build_windows_tcsh.html

Thanks, I changed the cpan link. Which other links are stale?

FYI, the master file for this webpage is dev_docs/build_template.html
and the files are created with `mkbuilddoc <os>`.

 Could whoever is responsible for the build instructions update the links
and give me a ping when it's done.
Ping. :)

 Oh, the bug. LIB contained a trailing \ that escaped a " that make
was using when passing the var to a shell incovation. The error message
was cryptic .. :-)

Well, the question is why you do have LIB and INCLUDE set at all. LIB is a
MSVC variable that might (or might not) interfere with your cygwin environment.

OOo's build environment doesn't need them, they might even produce problems
if they are set to stale values.

(And yes, I know that the .NET installation (can) set them.)
