The two problematic modules right now are B::Concise and Devel::Peek.
Neither will build.

I don't know.

I checked the ppm directory on ActiveState and it shows that 1.003012
doesn't build properly under their system for any perl build - even
the 5.15. The only version listed that did pass was the 1.003007. I
noticed that Strawberry Perl has the Devel::REPL (1.003011) included
in their Professional version (Alpha release) and it is based on
5.10.1. I thought it would be a simple matter of copying the Devel
directory from one to the other and the re.pl/re.bat file, but
apparently there must be some sort of data base or registry that
identifies the version as it still fails to be recognized by pdl2.

Right, there is the known problem with the signal
handling module on win32 so it won't build without
a force.

The reason that I am trying to get it to install completely on
Windows is that I am giving a presentation to our group on its use
and I was hoping that I would be able to determine a recipe that was
repeatable for the install.

If any one knows of something I can do, or have missed, please let me
know. Thanks,

One thing that happened to me when I was first
getting things working was that I had multiple
Devel::REPL files in different places in my
@INC path.  If you do, that could be the problem.

Just tried a ppm on my modules and it recognized that 1.003011 is
installed. Pdl2 still insists it is not found. I'll run sysiphusion
again and see if that clears up the issue.

The current PDL needs 1.003012 but you can edit the
pdl2.bat file and change that to 1.003011 and see if
that makes a difference.  There are some fixes in
the current release but the 1.003011 should work
for the most part still.

Hi Folks, This is on a Windows Vista machine that several weeks ago
I had pdl2 installed with all the dependencies (Devel::REPL
1.0030011) and had 3d and 2d graphics. Since then I have been
trying out various install methods (given some of the queries on
the list) and having various degrees of success. The one thing I
can't seem to get back is pdl2 because of the Devel::REPL
dependency.

Yes, this is a real pain.  On the list is to do a PAR archive version
of Devel::REPL that would include the whole "mess" but no time yet.

What I've done myself is to use cpan to install the Devel::REPL
dependencies starting from the deepest and continuing up until the
prerequisites for Devel::REPL are met.  At that time, a Devel::REPL
build should work.

I have perldl with 2d and 3d graphics, but I can't seem to install
Devel::REPL to get pdl2 back again. I have tried installing
version 1.003007 and then cpan upgrade to 1.0030012 (only version
listed), I have tried cpanm (which tries to install 1.0030012 and
fails dependency on sig), I have tried to download the source and
build and it fails with Devel::Peek, B::Concise and other
dependencies that won't build.

I'm not sure what "dependency on sig" means but there is a signal
handling module that only works for unix. However, if you force the
install, the win32 build works.  I thought we had fixed that to
ignore for win32 builds but I think something is still missing.

Does anyone have a recipe to install Devel::REPL on activestate
perl 5.10.1 - win32 multi-threaded version?

I lost my start on the dependency list but it looks like the upgrade
attempt was actually working.  You might try again with the force
install.

Good luck, Chris
