Hi,
I think it might be just you :-(
Though I'm not sure how.
Have you tried cpan -i rather than cpanminus ? maybe that is the issue.
I just repeated on Windows XP (SP3)
1) Install ActivePerl 5.12.3.1400
2) Create batch file with following two line content
set PATH=C:\perl\site\bin;C:\perl\bin;C:\Perl\auto\MinGW\bin;%PATH%
cmd /K
Run batch file and in resulting command prompt
cpan -i Alien::wxWidgets
MinGW installs and Alien::wxWidgets installs OK.
Much confusion ????
Given that the batch file forces the correct stuff to the front of your
path, I'm befuddled as to why your install fails.
With the next release of Alien::wxWidgets, assuming
C:\perl\site\bin;C:\perl\bin are on your path, then ActivePerl user
won't need to set paths. We currently just need that so that the
Alien::wxWidgets on CPAN can find the mingw runtime dll.

Hi,
OK, I just tried installing Alien::wxWidgets over ActivePerl 5.12.3 on
a clean Windows XP SP2 virtual machine. The executable 'cc1.exe' is in
C:\Perl\site\lib\auto\MinGW\libexec\gcc\mingw32\3.4.5. I added it to
my PATH and tried it again. It croaked again since the include
directory to wchar.h and other files are not set.
In my opinion, we should disable Alien::wxWidgets installation when
ActivePerl is paired with mingw since it seems to *broken*. And the
PPM package was last built on 2008 and is *not* available to
ActivePerl 5.14.x.
Thanks,
