I've uploaded Business::Stripe::WebCheckout to CPAN as a developer release. Release 1 failed when Stripe couldn't be contacted. Release 2 has cured this problem and, so far, all the CPAN Testers reports have passed 😊

However, Windows doesn't have gzip. So in Makefile.PL I have this line to use IO::Compress::Gzip which is included with Strawberry Perl: 

dist  => { COMPRESS => q{perl -MIO::Compress::Gzip=gzip,:constants -e"
+my $$in = $$ARGV[0]; gzip($$in => qq($$in.gz), q(Level) => Z_BEST_COM
+PRESSION, q(BinModeIn) => 1) or die q(gzip failed); unlink $$in;"}, S
+UFFIX => 'gz', },

[download]
This is included in the tarball that was uploaded.

Does this need changing in the release?
My best guess is that it is OK as it is only used when building the distribution, not when installing it but I wanted to check this is correct.
