Not necessary as I can reproduce your problem here after a clean
install of the Strawberry 5.12.3.0 MSI + "cpan -i PAR::Packer"
BTW, my Strawberry says (different from yours)
> perl -V
...
%ENV:
PERL_JSON_BACKEND="JSON::XS"
PERL_YAML_BACKEND="YAML"
@INC:
C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib
C:/strawberry/perl/vendor/lib
C:/strawberry/perl/lib
.
Preliminary findings:
- running "perl extract-embedded.pl show-inc.exe ..."
shows that indeed IO.dll is missing
- in fact the FILE stuff
(cf.
http://search.cpan.org/~smueller/PAR-1.002/lib/PAR/Tutorial.pod#Anatomy_of_a_Self-Contained_PAR_executable)
in show-inc.exe contains no DLL except Win32.dll (would have
at least expected IO.dll, Cwd.dll, Zlib.dll, Glob.dll, possibly others)
- myldr/parl.exe (in the PAR-Packer build directory) (which is the
"prototypical" packed executable) _does_ contain the above DLLs
