in reply to Trouble installing a module that uses Module::Install on Active Perl 5.8.8

Funny that you should mention this, it is actually a problem with Module::Install running with ActivePerl.

You need to update your version of Module::Install, the current one is 0.62 and that fixed my problems.

    Actually I have version 0.62 installed. :-/

      The documentation said that it was fixed in Version 0.61, if you say that it is not working with 0.62 then try using 0.61 and see what happens (You can look it up in the Changes file of the Module::Install distribution).

      Activestate has done a good job of porting stuff to Windows but it is never going to be more versatile than a *NIX port of Perl. That is just one of things us Windows guys have to live with... :)
