Hi, ActiveState currently report that FileHandle::Fmode will not build on Win32. When I click on the "FAIL" link for it at http://ppm.activestate.com/BuildStatus/5.8-F.html (the actual link is http://ppm.activestate.com/BuildStatus/5.8-windows/windows-5.8/FileHandle-Fmode-0.09.txt ) I see:
------------------------------------------------------------------ "Makefile out-of-date with respect to Makefile.PL" "Cleaning current config before rebuilding Makefile..." nmake -f Makefile.old Microsoft (R) Progr D:\cpanrun\build\5-8-0\bin\perl.exe Makefile.PL Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing MakNMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'false' : return code '0x1' Stop. t. <==" "==> Please rerun the make command. <==" false ------------------------------------------------------------------ What on Earth does all that mean ??? When I download the source from CPAN I can successfully build on every build of perl 5.8 that I have. This module also fails to build on hpux-pa-risc for ActiveState - but there's no active link to see any diagnostics on that failure. I've asked the question before (and I'll ask it again) - "why are those diagnostics not available ?" For perl 5.6, ActiveState finds no problems with this module on Win32. (For linux and hpux-pa-risc, it fails ... but again the diagnostics are unavailable.)
