ActivePerl ?

Any suggestion whether I should install activePerl or
download-compile from perl source code ?

To download-compile from perl source code : where can
I get a source code which can be compiled without
problem in cygwin ?  Or, where can I get a
pre-compiled perl binary for cygwin ?

Sam,

Perl is available as one of the packages when you run setup.exe.
Did you download and install all of the packages?

Kevin,

Thanks.

I just check the setup.log.full, and find these lines
:
===============================================
[perl] action=same trust=unknown installed=none
partial_list=yes src?=no
     [test] ver=5.6.1-1 partial_list=yes 

            inst=contrib/perl/perl-5.6.1-1.tar.gz
5893455 exists=no 

            src=contrib/perl/perl-5.6.1-1-src.tar.gz
6305513 exists=no
===============================================

So, it seems that I didn't get the perl from the
mirror site I selected.

I would try another site. Any recommendation of site ?

The problem is that perl is a test-only release.  So, you should
click on the Test button to see it.

I've actually removed this designation from the cygwin.com web site
but it will take a while to propagate to mirrors.

It seems perl is not installed when you just run setup.exe
without doing some extra stuff.

If you click the Exp(erimental) radio button on the "Select
packages to install" screen, perl 5.6.1 appears and you can
install it from all mirrors, I think.

I don't know why perl is experimental. It used to be installed
automatically.

Nearest Mirror

A Patch is available from activestate that fixes some problems with this
release.
