Ticket <URL: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=55389 >I am attempting to package a GTK program of hello world complexity (attached). Using Strawberry Perl v5.10.1 and the latest CPAN GTK libraries. The program works when executed from Perl directly. The PAR packaging works when done in Linux (for Linux). Running Windows XP. M:\>pp -r -o gtk_test.exe gtk_test.pl --lib c:\strawberry\perl\vendor\lib Can't load 'C:\DOCUME~1\TULLOH~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\par-TULLOH_DR\cache-747980e518612640bb53c4cf915453f938dc7a91\9790912d.dll' for module Pango: load_file:The specified module could not be found at C:/strawberry/perl/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 200. at C:\strawberry\perl\vendor\lib/PAR/Heavy.pm line 128 Compilation failed in require at Gtk2.pm line 31.

Manually adding the libraries on the command line produced a different error. I'm not sure if it's the same issue failing at a different spot or a different problem.

If you are attempting to recreate this I saw reports online that the same issue occured with Camelbox Perl, which has the GTK libraries bundled with it. Installing GTK from CPAN was a bit fiddly.
