Either 1)
use ActivePerl 822 - no install of ExtUtils::FakeConfig needed - this is the easiest way. or 2) use NMAKE to install ExtUtils::FakeConfig in earlier ActivePerl versions. Google for NMAKE15.exe - the Microsoft download page will be one of the first results. dmake fails to build ExtUtils::FakeConfig. or 3) take a look at the source for implib_mingw and call it yourself directly to create libperl58.a Regards Mark Harvey Platter wrote: > I'm trying to install for MinGW32 and ActivePerl but building the Fake > Config fails... > > dmake install > dmake: Error: -- `implib_mingw' not found, and can't be made > > Does anyone have a fix / workaround?
