Hi, I'm not sure about what is causing this issue. It could be path related or package related. When I set up Perl for building, I make sure that all the MSYS2 packages have been upgraded as listed in the installation steps at <https://www.msys2.org/> and then installing the packages needed for building: $ pacman -S --needed --noconfirm \ base-devel \ mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain \ mingw-w64-x86_64-perl \ Perhaps reading through the "building locally" section of <http://project-renard.github.io/doc/development/meeting-log/posts/2016/05/03/windows-build-with-msys2/> might help. It's a little old, but I believe the instructions are still valid. -- Another way is to setup a clean install of Windows + MSYS2 + Gtk3. The repository I mentioned also has a Vagrantfile <https://github.com/orbital-transfer-example/perl-gtk3-starter-basic/blob/main/Vagrantfile>. You can use that to get a fresh Windows 10 box set up by running $ vagrant up win10 -- Another solution you might want to try in the interim is to download either the .msi or a build asset from my repository and grab the perl5 lib directory out of there and use it as a local::lib <https://metacpan.org/pod/local::lib>. So either the .msi from here: 1. <https://github.com/orbital-transfer-example/perl-gtk3-starter-basic/releases/tag/0.002> or the win32-dist file from the latest build of the msys2-mingw workflow <https://github.com/orbital-transfer-example/perl-gtk3-starter-basic/actions/workflows/msys2-mingw.yml> that I ran last night (the build assets expire eventually and are only downloadable while logged in to GitHub). 2. <https://github.com/orbital-transfer-example/perl-gtk3-starter-basic/actions/runs/1047380510> The win32-dist file is much smaller as it contains none of the MSYS2 packages (can not be used independently of an MSYS2 installation). Hope that helps!
