But this introduces its own horrible complications. Many of Adamk's modules ship with Module::Install in the inc directory, and see perversely and deliberately designed to not install under Windows. See: http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24194 Back when I logged this bug report, I had managed to construct a work-around. More recently, I tried repeatedly to apply this patch to other modules (e.g. *::Tiny), but can no longer get my patch to work, even after patching all versions on Module::Install on my machine (i.e. already installed and shipped within *::Tiny). So I've taken the pledge, never to use Module::Install or any *::Tiny module until this issue is resolved. Reference: For Module::Install V 0.64, the real problem is a line 58. Of the 2 values being compared, one is UTC, one not. Hence the patch invoking Win32::UTCFileTime. -- Ron Savage [EMAIL PROTECTED]
