I use the cpan shell to install Perl modules, but I often get the error messages like
/usr/bin/tar: Archive value 88578 is out of uid_t range 0..65535 and tar ends with a non-zero exit status so the module won't install. How can I get around this? Are there any plans of supporting higher uids than 65535 in Cygwin? Peter -- I wish dialog boxes had a butten saying "Whatever". I hate being forced to answer "Yes" or "No" to a question I have no opinion on whatsoever. There ought to be a button matching my indifference. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
