I realize this is an old thread, but I don't feel like you really got an answer and I just ran into this. I'm not sure I have a complete answer, except to say I have successfully installed Strawberry Perl and Perl/Tk on two Windows 10 laptops. Things to note

  1. I used Strawberry Perl 5.32.1 64 bit (as I believe you did). I only mention this because I tried installing Tk with 5.38 and it failed for reasons I am still looking into. I did not try 5.36.
  2. On my Lenovo Helix, 2 out of 4k+ tests failed so I had to actually use the --force option. On my Lenovo W520 (months later) all tests passed.
  3. The one difference I did see between what you did and what I did (unless it was a typo) is that I used cpanm rather than cpan. I can't tell you why I did that. I believe I researched it at the time (having been out of Perl programming for a while) and intentionally chose to use cpanm.
  4. I blogged about it here (https://doersofstuff.org/2023/05/15/picking-perls-in-a-strawberry-patch/) if you want to see the whole thing.

Hopefully that helps you (or anyone else who stumbles onto this). Hopefully I'll get a chance to look into the issue I had 5.38.
