Well, I want to avoid this, because it is much more simple to use a single command line `dmake instaldeps` than to install dozens of modules one by one. Under Windows I can't just use a single `dmake installdeps` anyway, because there are very many cpan modules that can't be installed with cpan, but with ppm only, so they should be installed separately. > > Note that even core Perl requires you to use dmake.exe if you want to > create a Windows build with GCC.

I hope it is no problem if some of the modules were compiled with dmake and MinGW and others with nmake and Visual Studio...
