How did you package your application?
pp -o hello hello.pl

Turn on verbose and show us how it went.
pp -vv -o hello hello.pl

Can I get a ls /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i686-linux/auto/Wx/?

On my machine it (or the equivalent) contains a bunch of wx dlls.

I suggest you try scandeps -V yourprogram, and then pick up all the missing dll's (so's, whatever) and add then with into the resulting executable with the -l option (or however you wish, it is a zip file).

MJD says "you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo!"

I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).

** The third rule of perl club is a statement of fact: pod is sexy.

ll /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i686-linux/auto/Wx/

There are no .so's at all, apart from Wx.so.

scandeps -V hello.pl gives the following:

There are no .so's to pick. :-(

Is this a problem with my PAR installation?
