Btw, ActiveState seems pretty busted right now for a whole lot of things. http://use.perl.org/~Alias/journal/35219 Granted this is 5.10 (mod_perl itself doesn't quite work yet with 5.10) but AS 5.8 has similar problems, just not as many.
For the benefit of ActivePerl users reading this, the problem raised in http://use.perl.org/~Alias/journal/35219 about not being able to upgrade core modules was addressed with ppm4: http://www.nabble.com/ANNOUNCE:-Beta-of-PPM-version-4-released-td4906225.html (click on "Show quoted text" to see the release notes), together with the adjustment of @INC to set C:\Perl\site\lib before C:\Perl\lib. See also the note at the top of http://ppm.activestate.com/BuildStatus/5.10-A.html for known issues regarding the state of ActiveState's 10xx ppm repository. -- best regards, Randy Kobes
