[wxperl-users] all tests fail -- what gives?

[Ziser, J. <xe...@ya...>]

Hi, sorry, don't know if I'm asking this in the right place, but I can't find any other place...

I'm running Cygwin on WinXP, and using the latest GTK+ version of wxWidgets.  This is the first
time I've ever installed wxWidgets, but it seems to work (after copying some DLLs to a directory
in the PATH), based on the fact that the wxWidgets fractal demo compiles, runs, and displays its
not-too-impressive fractal just fine.

Installing wxPerl has proven more problematic, though.  When I do "make test", after following all
the instructions and installing everything with no apparent errors, every single test fails.  How
can I find out why this is happening and how to fix it?

Whenever I try running any script that contains the words "use Wx;", perl just immediately exits,
before running any code, with no errors or warnings.

Just for your amusement, here is the output of make test (with useless babbling from make
omitted).

Pretty depressing, eh?
