in thread Perl5.26 installing Tk module manually

Hi Rob!

As near as I remember, the gcc version comes if you install the AS CPAN module.
As I mentioned, I am at v 5.24.
Added: I guess for v5.26 or v5.28, you perhaps would have to fork a new version like I did to add Tk in addition to Tkx in 5.26. Then add CPAN to the public reference project (in addition to Tk) if it is not already there?

I didn't try that, but I ran your suggested command in my command window, (eg cpan -i Math::LongDouble). Here are results in a readmore tag.
This is "verbatim", except that I edited out my user id on this machine.
Cheers, Marshall

Another PS: I looked at my custom AS build of 5.26 with Tk and I could add Math::LongDouble from https://github.com/sisyphus/math-longdouble to that fork, if I wanted to it that way. I do suspect that it would be possible manually add just this one module like I did for v5.24 on my machine. In the current world where computing power, memory and storage are getting to the "don't worry about it" stage, build strategies that would have been unthinkable before are now not only thinkable, but plausible and workable.
