Subject: Perl IPC::Cmd
I'm using
perl 5.8.7 for Solaris
perl 5.8.8 for Cygwin
perl 5.8.10 for Windows (native)
perl 5.8.10 ??
To my surprise, the Cygwin version of Perl does not include the standard
module
IPC::Cmd, though the other two (in particular, the earlier 5.8.7 Perl) do.
Is
there a particular reason, why IPC::Cmd is left out from the Cygwin
distribution?
I don't know. Mind you, they don't need a reason to not include a non-core
module - the fact that it's not a core module is, of itself, sufficient
reason.
With perl 5.10.0, IPC::Cmd became a core module, so *every* build of perl
5.10.0 ought to include that module.
Cheers,
Rob
