        In order to compile source code under Windows you will need to obtain
        a 'make' utility.  The <command>nmake</command> utility provided with
        Microsoft Visual C++ may be used.  As an alternative, there is a
        utility called <command>dmake</command> available from CPAN which is
        written entirely in Perl.

        As described in <xref linkend="modules-manual-download" />, however, most
        packages already exist and are available from ActiveState or theory58S.
        We highly recommend that you install them using the ppm GUI available with
        ActiveState and to add the theory58S repository to your list of repositories.

        Running Bugzilla on Windows requires the use of ActiveState
        Perl 5.8.1 or higher. Many modules already exist in the core
        distribution of ActiveState Perl. Additional modules can be downloaded
        from <ulink url="http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/" /> if you use
        Perl 5.8.x or from <ulink url="http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/PPMPackages/10xx/" />
        if you use Perl 5.10.x.
