Hi guys,
I updated my cygwin installation and obviously got a new Perl version, which means I need to reinstall a lot of modules again...
When I fire up
perl -MCPAN -e shell;
and for instance try to install Config::Inifiles, it fails with strange "02packages.details.txt.gz does not contain a Line-Count header" messages (see below).
Does anybody have similar problems?
Thanks in advance for any pointers,
Stephan
