The first hang is a timing issue - parldyn.exe is being looked for before it has actually been installed in its destination directory. By the time you get to re-run 'dmake test' it's where it needs to be and everything should be sweet.

The output that you posted looks fine execept that some of the tests are failing. File::Temp can't be found because @INC consists only of the current working directory - not sure if that indicates a PAR-Packer problem or a problem with the perl installation. (It's a pity that you re-installed Perl, as it was definitely fine before.) And PAR/Filter/PodStrip.pm can't be found because it's not yet in any of the directories listed in @INC. Again, @INC looks odd - it should contain blib.

In order to determine whether your perl installation is ok, could you build Math::FFT and see if that works ok ? If it does, then I'll have to start scratching my head as to what's suddenly started fucking up @INC in the PAR-Packer test suite. (You could try running 'dmake install' followed by 'dmake test'. That should make PAR/Filter/PodStrip.pm visible to the test suite ... but not File::Temp.) If Math::FFT does fail to build, then there's something wrong with your perl installation, and perl should be re-installed. (But show me the errors before you re-install perl.)

Cheers,
Rob
