Re: Bootstrap Perl

Michael, I just hit that problem 2 days ago. You need a patch beyond the
svn/hg version of WiX3. (My network card on my main computer at home
died 2 days ago, and I've got a new one on the way - but I can't commit
at the moment. I can send you the patch from another computer.) Let me
send you that patch (4-6 hours? Gotta get home from work first.) and
things should work.

Checking out http://hg.curtisjewell.name/WiX3 or
http://svn.ali.as/cpan/trunk/WiX3 , depending on what you have in the
way of VCS software, will get you what to patch.
