Installing Palm::PDB following you instruction gives:

"make had returned bad status, install seems impossible"

Info about install: http://www.cpan.org/modules/INSTALL.html

"C. BUILD
Does the module require compilation?

1. If it does,"

No info on how to determine if it does :-(

"D. INSTALL
Make sure the newlines for the modules are in Mac format, not Unix format. Move the files manually into the correct folders."

I don't know what "the correct folders" are :-(

So, a lot of questions on my part.

edit: I don't seem to have the make program on my machine. So I probably need to install that. Do people on Windows also have to go trough installing dependencies like this? Otherwise I had perhaps better fire up my Windows virtual machine and try there.
