The node of merlyn's to which frodo72 was referring was this one, in case anyone was wondering. PAR is useful when packaging up a Perl application. In my case I'm trying to find out what modules my application uses .. so I may just roll my own application.

Sure, but I've seen in the PAR documentation that it has some heuristic to decide which modules to include; this could be useful in your case, I think, because I hope they've already worked out the problem of eliminating modules that are distributed together with Perl, saving you time to reproduce such a behaviour. Update: I now see that the heuristic comes from Module::ScanDeps (this is in pp documentation). Flavio (perl -e 'print(scalar(reverse("\nti.xittelop\@oivalf")))') Don't fool yourself.	[reply]

Well, I tried installing PAR and got `Warning: prerequisite Compress::Zlib 1.3 not found. We have 1.16.` [download] which puzzles me a little .. couldn't find version 1.3, only version 1.16? Isn't that a good thing? And there's no workaround? I guess I'll pass on PAR for now and go ahead with the brute-force method.

Does 1.3 mean 1.3x? It goes up to 1.34 on CPAN	[reply]
