Greetings, attached is the patch to upgrade Archive::Extract to 0.18, as just released to the CPAN. This patch contains one bugfix that's important for Win32 & CPANPLUS. It also fixes the headers in the .packed files to use relative paths. For completeness sake, here's the changelog entry: Changes for 0.18 Wed Apr 11 21:20:53 2007 ============================================ * Starting 5.9.5, this module installs itself in the core-perl dir, rather than site-perl, as it's now part of core. * Reverse '$PREFER_BIN' conditional for tar/tar.gz files. The current logic was actually exactly the wrong way around. * Small regex change to tar/tar.gz detection. -- Jos Boumans "Two rules to success in life: 1.
