compilation problem

jlnh has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

What's wrong?

==========
C:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe -MExtUtils::Install -e "pm_to_blib({{@
+ARGV}}, 'blib\lib\auto', q[], '755')" -- \
  Rijndael.pm blib\lib\Crypt\Rijndael.pm \
  lib/Crypt/Rijndael.pm blib\lib\Crypt\Rijndael.pm
to undefined at C:/strawberry/perl/lib/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 1208
make: *** [pm_to_blib] Error 2

E:\Applications\OS\Crypt-Rijndael-1.09>perl -v

This is perl 5, version 14, subversion 2 (v5.14.2) built for MSWin32-x
+86-multi-thread
==========

What I can think of right now: You're not saying what you're trying to achieve. Does the standard module installation not work? It's unclear what your ExtUtils::Install version is. In my version, pm_to_blib wants source and destination as key and value respectively in a hashref passed as first argument. Your call has one set of curlies too much around @ARGV for that to work.

`make: ** [pm_to_blib] Error 2`* What command did you run to generate that (and the preceding) output ? We possibly need to see a bit more of what came before. Something is definitely not right. Crypt-Rijndael-1.09 builds fine for me with Strawberry Perl (portable), perl-5.14.2. Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l]

Do you have any autoruns configured? You need to show all output from `perl Makefile.PL && dmake test` after doing a `dmake realclean` of course :)	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Yes, the installation with cpanm Module::Name is working properly. `E:\Applications\OS\Crypt-Rijndael-1.09>perl Makefile.PL Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing Makefile for Crypt::Rijndael Writing MYMETA.yml and MYMETA.json E:\Applications\OS\Crypt-Rijndael-1.09>make to undefined at C:/strawberry/perl/lib/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 1208 make: *** [pm_to_blib] Error 2 E:\Applications\OS\Crypt-Rijndael-1.09>` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

E:\Applications\OS\Crypt-Rijndael-1.09>make You need to run `dmake`, not `make` Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l] [select]
