Hi Javier,
I have run into this exact same issue today, while trying to get PAR
installed so that I could update the binary of a program a co-worker of
mine needed. I don't have a solution to the bug, but I have gotten a
work-around in place.
What you do is:
1. Use CPAN in strawberry perl to attempt to install PAR::Packer.
2. As its running (and failing) the tests, cancel out of the build with
Ctrl-C.
3. Use CPAN in strawberry perl to attempt to install PAR::Filter::PodStrip.
4. When PAR::Filter::PodStrip is running, it'll create a PodStrip.pm
file in the build directory.
5. Cancel out of the build with Ctrl-C.
6. Search for the PodStrip.pm file in the c:\strawberry directory (I
just used windows search), and copy that into a new directory structure
that you'll manually create: C:\strawberry\perl\lib\PAR\Filter\
Copying the file into that directory will place PodStrip.pm in the @INC
path, which is what the PAR::Packer build was complaining about in the
first place.
8. Use CPAN in strawberry perl to install PAR::Packer. This time it'll
succeed.
