    For some reason, the most recent releases of Strawberry Perl didn't make it into the zip file on my last release (there should be 5.24.1 and 5.22.3).

    Fetching from the repo works properly, but not the zip file. I just spun up a Windows AWS instance to test this after I read your output, and will have this corrected today.

    Thanks!

    update: I've fixed the issue in the v1.10 branch, but I am going to do more work on it before I merge in the changes to the master branch. For now, if you copy the contents of this file and overwrite the C:\berrybrew-programs\berrybrew\data\perls.json file with the copied contents, you'll immediately have access to the updated Perls (5.24.1_xx and 5.22.3_xx).

      Thank you, stevieb.

      I am installing 5.24.1_32.

      The installation of 5.24.1_32 was successful.

      I used CPAN to try to install DateTime.

      I got the following message: DateTime is up to date (1.42).

      (As one would expect, the latest version of Strawberry Perl contains the latest version of DateTime.)

        Yeah, I just tested with the version you're using (5.24.1_32). DateTime is not in core, but apparently it's bundled in with Strawberry's cut of this portable version as it's already installed for me too. Same on the new 5.22.3_64 version.

    Thank you for your help, stevieb.

    I am pleased with the progress that I have made this evening.

    I will see you tomorrow.
