Was trying to load some new packages in CPAN under perl in cygwin. I noticed a problem when it asked for prereqs:
It wouldn't accept "CR" to terminate the input -- only "LF". I tried reloading CPAN -- that pulled up the reconfigure dialog for some new parameters -- then I find the same problem in the config dialog where CPAN wants all of it's parameters (to create a new "~/.cpan/CPAN/Myconfig.pm"). I try typing the first param and hitting "LF" and the the configure dialogue whips by takin the defaults for all of the configure questions. At this point, I don't know if it is "cygwin", cygwin-perl or something else. I don't get the same behavior on my linux box but the installed packages are not identical. Anyone else seeing problems like this or have ideas how to find where the problem might be? thanks, Linda -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
