So. Picking up in the instructions, under "Other dependencies" with- Download the Module-Build Perl Package from SourceForge: Download Module-Build (sourceforge.net)
- Download the File-DesktopEntry module from Jaap Karssenberg's page at http://search.cpan.org/~pardus/File-DesktopEntry-0.04/
- The File-MimeInfo module is also available from Jaap Karssenberg's CPAN page &ndash: download it from http://search.cpan.org/~PARDUS/File-MimeInfo/
Note that we're downloading all these into the same directory we used for all the other stuff downloaded earlier (see pt 1).
I find that the ppm install Module-Build
command operates on the tarball in the directory where the command is issued. On the next one, we'll try installing it through the ActiveState Perl Module Installer widget.
Ooops. Got this:
item "nearest 154 36" doesn't exist at C:/Perl/lib/ActivePerl/PPM/GUI.pm line 208. item "nearest 154 36" doesn't exist while executing ".p.p.tree selection add {nearest 154 36}" ("uplevel" body line 1) invoked from within "uplevel 1 $command $args" invoked from within ".p.p selection add {nearest 154 36}" invoked from within "::perl::CODE(0x27d7688) 154 36 267 266" (command bound to event)
while the package list in the graphical widget was refreshing. Going back to the command shell... which doesn't work on the second module, either. Maybe this is not a bug in the graphical widget, but a data file problem which caused it to crash...
