in thread Building the 'pp' module on windows.

Hi, Yes, I'm trying to do this via Strawberry.... here's how I go about it:
- Open up a terminal (Start -> Run -> Open "cmd") - Then type "cpan PAR::Packer"
It asks if I want to prepend some other dependancies, I always type "Y" and eventually crashes. The last dependancies on the list that it was trying to install were File::Spec and Perl::OSType ... Strangely enough I've managed to install PAR::Packer on a linux machine with no hassles whatsoever, but Win32 & 64 are killing me.
