Thanks for this quick answer Rob.
Yes, it compiled and tests were ok. I don't install otherwise actually.
Yesterday, I upgraded all required packages to their latest version, and
recompiled also Par and par::packer.
I don't know why, but I've just retried and packed perl script now works on the
other machines without the need of the library file.
I can't tell why it didn’t work the first time. Maybe you're right and I failed
to notice a failed test or maybe a problem with one of the dependencies...
As I can't get the root cause, I think that we can consider the incident as
closed.
Thanks again.
Philippe.

Hi Philippe,

But Strawberry is just a mingw build anyway - by your own admission it is
already currently supported :-)
I've just installed PAR-Packer-0.982 on Strawberry 5.10.0 and the
perl510.dll definitely gets packed for me with pp.
For a "hello world" script I ran:
pp -o try.exe try.pl
Then in another shell that doesn't know where either the perl executable or
perl510.dll are, I ran:
------------------------------
C:\_32\pscrpt\par>perl -V
'perl' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
C:\_32\pscrpt\par>try.exe
hello world
------------------------------
Did 'dmake test' pass all tests when you built and installed PAR-Packer ?
Cheers,
Rob
