Good Day Monks! I am trying to install the PAR::Packer module instead of paying IndigoStar for perl2exe, but I am running into issues that have me stumped. Any advice you could render would be much appreciated. Thanks! Here is my version of PERL:

Below is the output from CPAN:

Please note that these paths (set with PERL5LIB or PERLLIB) are not honored by perl when running under taint mode, which may lead to problems.
