[emerge][installing] how to manage the "perl is not a valid win32 application" error??

[Alberto Curro]

Hello everyone,

 after a long, long time without using or even trying kde on windows, now
I'm ready again to offer some help. My first step was, obviously, tried to
install the last distro. And I found this when trying to make an "emerge
qt". First time it fails after a quite long time with a message window
saying that "perl is not a valid win32 application", and after that the
emerge process crashed.

 I've googled a bit, with no luck, so maybe someone there in the list could
help me:

I did an --print-installed:

C:\kderoot>emerge --print-installed
emerge.bat executed
