Re^3: Disappointed with latest Strawberry Perl

Added a few remarks to the RT queue
(Strawberry Perl)++ ! Getting further and further. I also suggest to (sym)link/copy dmake to nmake and make and bundle Tk, as it cannot be installed with cpan, as make requires the extra argument "MSWin32" to succeed.

Linking would be no trouble for you either, as for the other perl's, you'd have the path to make and nmake in a part of your $PATH that corresponds to the perl you are working with. As said, I now have 5 different perls happily living side by side in thre different environments.

What's wrong with Tk? I think it should build fine with Strawberry Perl, at least there's one PASS at cpan testers.

Nothing is wrong with Tk :) It just needs an extra argument on the initial Makefile.PL command line.
I just finished my complete list of modules, or more precicely the ones that PASS'd. The part I miss most is libexpat, so I cannot install any XML stuff. Maybe OpenSSL is second. Here's the list of PASS's and Failures, more specific output on request:

Lack of platform-detection sounds like a bug in the Tk Makefile.PL. It's not any concern of Strawberry's

Tk builds fine on Strawberry. It must be another problem, maybe a broken PATH or so.
