Yes but it did indeed state "No such file or directory...". Would it
be that hard for DynaLoader.pm to mention exactly which file it was
looking for?
Yes, it would, because that information is not exposed to the
application; you just call LoadLibrary, and if you get a file not
found error back, there's no way to determine if it was the library
DLL itself or one of the dependent DLLs that windows couldn't find.
Well then how about changing the error message to something as
nonsensical as "Unable to find this library, or a library on which this
one depends..."
