The canonical way to run just a single test (with more diagnostic output)
is
make TEST_VERBOSE=1 TEST_FILES=t/20-pp.t
dmake test TEST_VERBOSE=1 TEST_FILES=t/20-pp.t
runs ok for me. Not sure that it's going to provide any assistance to the op
wrt his particular failing test ... guess there's one way we can find out.
In any case, I suspect it's a bug in the test script that's causing the
failure (which I can't reproduce on Windows Vista, btw). So I would just
do
'cpan -fi PAR::Packer'.
Please don't advise users to "force install" PAR::Packer. You may be right
that the failing test is a glitch in the test suite. But it may also be
caused
by a genuine bug in PAR::Packer that will bite the user later.
Quite right - I was merely indicating what I would do (and why I would do
it), but I should've made it clearer that this is a call that the op should
make for himself.
Cheers,
Rob
