Hi all!
I posted the following on the libwww-perl mailing list but nobody took a
bite :-(!
I tried to upgrade the libwww-perl from 5.837 to 6.02. This is on ActivePerl
5.10.1.1006 from ActiveState on a Win32 (Win-XP Pro SP3 plus all its
updates. I was using Perl Package Manager v.4.06. The Error massage is crap!
It is a typical message written by a programmer for himself, not for poor
users who couldn't care less about "... The package IO-Compress-Zlib has
already installed a file that package IO-Compress wants to install."
What the hell should I do???
Because of the silly 20K bytes limit on posts, I attach jus a part of the
PPM printout:
libwww-perl marked for install
