Well, I finally got mobi2imp.pl to properly create a .imp using wine in linux (ubuntu 8.04)!
I cheated though. I realized that the ppm is broken when using ActivePerl for Windows (build 820) and wine, but I have that setup working on my WinXP computer.
Sooooooo, I just copied the site/lib directory from my WinXP computer's Perl setup (as described by tompe on this
mobiperl dev hub website) to the .winenew (I called it .wineimp) c:/Perl/site/lib and Presto, all works (sort of).
See attached site-lib.zip below for MY local perl modules to make Mobi2IMP work. Just place the contents in the site/lib in C:\Perl of your wine installation of the ActivePerl 5.8.8 (build 820).
While I did get a valid .imp, I did get some error messages that may or may not be important. I couldn't use the wine viewer for some strange reason, but I attach that .imp here for testing purposes. It displays fine on my WinXP computer.
Round two has been won!
