Re: [perl #60678] Configure.pl manifest problem on Win32
I tried it with version 5.10.0 (build 1004), and under Cygwin. Same result. Am I right in assuming that virtually none of the parrot/rakudo developers is using Windows or Cygwin -- if someone WERE using Windows, he or she might have encountered this. It seems like such a simple, and early in the build process error that it would affect anyone building with Windows.

Re: [perl #60678] Configure.pl manifest problem on Win32
Will Coleda, 1. To correct myself and be more precise, out of the approx 3700 files in the MANIFEST, my running of Perl Configure.pl only shows those (~126) below as missing (but they aren't missing): [and 2. It looks like the files not found in the manifest check don't have the same upper/lower case spelling as the ones that are actually the released parrot-0.8.1...gz. For example in the MANIFEST it's ...hq9plus... while in the released files its HQ9Plus and similarly in the MANIFEST ...lib/Parrot... while the files are ...lib/parrot ] quoting from the Configure.pl run: C:\parrot-0.8.0perl Configure.pl Parrot Version 0.8.1 Configure 2.0 Copyright (C) 2001-2008, The Perl Foundation. Hello, I'm Configure. My job is to poke and prod your system to figure out how to build Parrot. The process is completely automated, unless you passed in the `--ask' flag on the command line, in which case I'll prompt you for a few pieces of info.
