    Except that the version of PAR on ActiveState's PPM repository is ancient. It looks like the automated build is snafued on http://ppm.activestate.com, because Makefile.PL is needing some manual intervention.

    You are better off building the latest and greatest PAR from CPAN (if you have MVC), which will build a .exe that can run on a PC without perl installed (the ancient one doesn't, the .exe needs a perl5 dll).

    I notice that PodMaster has a PPM distro of PAR 0.85 for ActivePerl 5.8, see: http://crazyinsomniac.perlmonk.org/perl/ppm/5.8/

      Even better would be to search for it on http://kobesearch.cpan.org/

      Then you will see that the Repository of bribes.org has version v.087.
