Hello Monks,

I get the following error when trying to install Mozilla::Dom on a win32 system. *Edit* I am running XP with ActiveState 5.8.*

I added the environmental variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH with the path to my FireFox installation (3.0.5), which contains the file xpcom.dll - which I am not sure if this is what the installation is actually looking for. It was of no help.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you in advance for the assistance. 
Set up gcc environment - 3.4.5 (mingw special) 
*** can not find package for any of (mozilla-xpcom >= 1.7, firefox-xpc
+om >= 1.0, mozilla-firefox-xpcom >= 1.0) 
*** check that one of them is properly installed and available in PKG_
+CONFIG_PATH at makefile.pl line 43
