in reply to Unable to install Perl::Critic in 32/64 Bit Strawberry Perl Portable

Try cpanp -i KENTNL/File-ShareDir-ProjectDistDir-0.4.4.tar.gz or cpan -i KENTNL/File-ShareDir-ProjectDistDir-0.4.4.tar.gz or cpanm -i KENTNL/File-ShareDir-ProjectDistDir-0.4.4.tar.gz As  KENTNL/File-ShareDir-ProjectDistDir-0.4.4.tar.gz doesn't depend on Path::IsDev/Path::FindDev

    What can I say - "You are a STAR!"

    It worked :-) - I ran the cpan -i KENTNL/File-ShareDir-ProjectDistDir-0.4.4.tar.gz as you suggested and the rest of the stuff installed. I now have Perl::Critic installed - Deep Joy! (I am probably opening a can of worms here - but I heard a lot about it...)

    Thank-you so much! The Perl community is awesome!

    Anyway I have no idea how that fixed it as I don't understand how it could now skip the other dependencies?

      As I said, the earlier version didn't depend on those modules, and Perl::Critic doesn't require the latest version
