in thread Request for Perl::Critic Testimonials

As far as I could see, the error is fairly general and seems perhaps related to the checking of "pragma". At least, when I tried to re-install Perl::Critic with CPAN, the install gave an error when doing the "pragma" test.

May be I should just switch to AS Perl 5.8.8 ... but I have tons of modules installed (some through ppm, some through CPAN) and it takes me days to re-install them all.

    I can understand that feeling... However if you upgrade from 5.8.7 to 5.8.8 the ActiveState Perl should not delete any of your modules, it should be a straight upgrade.

    That being said, I cannot promise that it will work perfectly, it is Windows you know... :)

      Thanks, we will give it a try!
