I see. :-( > You should be able to install that with your package manager > to pull in the dependencies and a follow up CPAN install > should work to upgrade the version a la > > cpan> upgrade Devel::REPL That works, but it requires something like a 50MB download just for the dependencies. :-( I was hoping to avoid some of that. Anyway, I have added instructions to get Devel::REPL on Ubuntu. Personally I'm satisfied with the Ubuntu instructions as they are now. They cover almost 100% of PDL's functionality with only NDF and Proj4 missing and I think I'll skip those: * NDF requires the Starlink library which is huge (750MB download, 3GB unzipped) and I can't provide simple instructions. * When I tried to install Proj4, it completely broke the PDL install. Very scary. So even if I get it to work I won't feel comfortable with it. So I'm going to leave the Ubuntu instructions as they are and try to write instructions for Fedora. I don't know how many distributions I'll cover in total. The Ubuntu instructions took me a full day to write and test properly. Cheers, Daniel. -- Intolerant people should be shot. _______________________________________________ Perldl mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.jach.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/perldl
