And what version of perl??
I had this problem also and described the solution in a mail last septembre.
Here is the relevent part (it had taken a day to discover that):
<<snipp>>
***** FIRST *****
problem: config won't be able to discover the dvips-version of MikTeX 1.20e.
it also failed in recognizing the ability of pnmcrop recognizes
the -l switch
cause : analyzing the config.pl I realized, that the get_out_err subroutine
delivers $stat=-1 although the called command finishes without
error.
the reason why is a PERL BUG, occuring in ActivState Perl 5.6.0
Build 611 I had installed.
consulting the perl bug database, the bug seemed to stay until
Build 616.
Whether earlier versions are also buggy I don't know.
solution:With the new version Build 618 everything works fine. Perhaps a
hint could be
added in the Install file, as this is really difficult to find.
<<snipp>>
Was I right?
