Re: [perl-win32-gui-users] PERL Win32 and Perl Version

[Jez White]

Hi,

I'm not sure why it's not working - as a test I downloaded V1 from 
sourceforge and did the following (previously I was using manually built 
win32::gui). It installed ok, and my apps are running correctly - the only 
issue I can see is that most of the documentation isn't included in the 
binary for some reason.

Cheers,

jez.

Hi Jez,

Output from running PPM install attached below.

I tried it with both 5.6 and 5.8 - and received the same
message in both cases.
