But this version is still not available as the current version on CPAN or ActiveState... after *three weeks*. You should ask about his on ActiveState's PPM mailing list. (You would need to subscribe. I think http://listserv.activestate.com/mailman/mysubs will lead you to the right place.) >> When you "install Text::Scan" via cpan commandline the version is 0.26. So CPAN.pm also fails to detect the existence of version of 0.28 ? Perhaps ActiveState have failed to detect the presence of that version for the same reason - whatever that reason happens to be :-) I've taken a quick look at the Text-Scan-0.28 distro and can't spot anything suspicious. Definitely worth asking about on ActiveState's PPM mailing list. >> When you navigate to it on, say, http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/by-module/Text the latest version is 0.26.

Yes - that finds it for me, too. (And that's where I always go to find a module.) > > > > > > Second: on the ActiveState build status links for ActivePerl 6xx (corresponding to perl 5.6), there are many "FAIL" status links which actually lead to "All tests successful" build logs. What's up with that? I don't know - though I've noticed the same thing myself and even asked about it on the perl-win32-users list (hosted by ActiveState). I didn't really get an answer - but probably the best place to ask about that would also be on ActiveState's PPM mailing list. Cheers, Rob
