Hi there, In the process of installing perl modules to get an IRC bot working via cygwin, I'm encountering a problem with make & installing ExtUtils::CBuilder and thus the modules that depend upon it. The make / install goes through fine, but cygwin doesn't seem to detect it afterwards.
Attached is the cygcheck of my system, and a log of my attempt to install the two modules. Thanks for any help with this problem -Robert
