At the risk of being pedantic, if you were looking at the tests on the Activestate site, Perl modules requiring external programs for their functionality will show that they fail. This is because Activestate has automated the module installation process and installs the modules on a plain Windows installation with no other programs installed.

In many cases, if you can get the requisite software installed, you can then install the module in question using the techniques listed in A Guide to Installing Modules.

Often times, once the module is installed, others will create a PPM and make it available (as is the case in this discussion with the Bribes repository).

Just a little back ground that may or may not be helpful.

Cheers,

Brent
