Dear Mr. Burlison

I'm a using Perl5.6 on WinNT and Linux.
ExtUtils::Installed works fine on Linux, does not work on WinNT.

I found that error occurs on these lines:
<quote>
   $module =~ s!$Config{archlib}/auto/(.*)/.packlist!$1!s;
   $module =~ s!$Config{sitearch}/auto/(.*)/.packlist!$1!s;
</quote>

I think that backslash(es) contained in $Config{archlib} and 
$Config{sitesearch} occurs error.So I change these lines like 
below and it works fine:
<quote>
#   $module =~ s!$Config{archlib}/auto/(.*)/.packlist!$1!s;
#   $module =~ s!$Config{sitearch}/auto/(.*)/.packlist!$1!s;
#---Modify---------
   my $sCfg = $Config{archlib};
   $sCfg =~ s/\\/\\\\/g;
   $module =~ s!$sCfg/auto/(.*)/.packlist!$1!s;
   my $sCfg = $Config{sitearch};
   $sCfg =~ s/\\/\\\\/g;
   $module =~ s!$sCfg/auto/(.*)/.packlist!$1!s;
#---Modify---------
</quote>

I hope this may be your help.

Sinceryly.
