Hello mailing list participants, xchat in binary form as provided by cygnome requires libperl.dll in some particular version (5.6.1) in my case. File is not available in my installation and the version of perl used is considerably higher 5.8. So well the simple symlink from libperl.5.8.1.dll.a work or is the required version the only thing that will be accepted. If yes, is anyone aware of any trustworthy places where I can get it?
5.6.x perl releases are outdated and no longer supported.
You cannot copy the 5.8 perl DLL to substitute 5.6 perl because: 1. the rest of perl-5.6.x is no longer available 2. 5.6 and 5.8 are not binary compatible
Rebuild xchat against the latest perl.
