Re: [Unattended-Dev] Experiences with Strawberry Perl instead of ActivePerl?

Hello Juan, 

thanks a lot, I tested this and I think we are near a working state.

The ptar command unpacks the .tar.gz archive not into 
   %TEMP%\Win32-NetResource-0.057
like wanted / expected, but instead into 
   c:\windows\system32\Win32-NetResource-0.057

The commands
    cd %TEMP%\Win32-NetResource-0.057
    call c:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl Makefile.PL 
    call gmake install
then fail because they expect Makefile.PL to be in a different directory.

So I suppose we will have to explicitely tell the ptar command in which target directory to unpack the archive...?

Regards

Gerhard Hofmann
