Hi All,

I'm trying to install "LWP::Protocol::https" on my system. I had already successfully installed LWP. I am running Perl v5.14.2 on Cygwin. I noted that the installation of some of the dependencies for "LWP::Protocol::https" had failed so I decided to look into this and try to install these individually.

See below the messages when I try to install "Mozilla::CA" under the cpan program. I can see the file CA.pm:

Heim@Heim-PC ~/.cpan
$ find . | egrep CA.pm
./build/Mozilla-CA-20130114-7cyvJm/lib/Mozilla/CA.pm
[download]

There seems to be a problem with the paths in @INC (see below) but why should a standard install process fail?

LWP was the first CPAN package that I tried to install and I didn't have any problems with this. Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Edward
