Hi Fabio,

As Chris says, it's just that ppm apparently thinks that 2.006 is less than 2.4.4.

I'll try to rewrite all the ppd files to specify a minimum version of 0.
That's not strictly accurate - but it should allow those additional PDL ppm packages to install. (I don't think anyone on Windows is going to have a version of PDL that's less than 2.4.2.)

In the meantime:
1) Download http://www.sisyphusion.tk/ppm/PDL-Vector Valued.ppd and save it in your cwd (as VectorValued.ppd) .
2) Open the copy you just saved and change every occurrence of:
       <REQUIRE NAME="PDL" VERSION="2.4.4" />
 to:
       <REQUIRE NAME="PDL" VERSION="0" />
3) Run:
   ppm install PDL-VectorValued.ppd --force.

That will use your locally amended copy of the ppd file to install PDL::VectorValued.

Do the same for any other modules that give you the same sort of trouble.

You don't really need to amend *every* occurrence of '<REQUIRE NAME="PDL" VERSION="2.4.4" />' ... just amending the single entry for your particular architecture will suffice. (But, if you don't know which entry relates to your architecture, changing *all* occurrences might be the simplest solution.)

In any case, I'll try to get the amended ppd files uploaded tonight.

Cheers,
Rob

Subject: [Perldl] PDL-CCS requires VectorValued which asks for PDL 2.4.4

Hi,
I was updating modules on windows and get an issue because the 1.17
depends VectorValued (that is by the way installed .06) and this looks
for the PDL 2.4.4 while the new version 2.006 is probably bad
interpreted as less than 2.4.4.

So the .ppd on sisyphusion should be fixed, I suppose, to work with 2.006.

Thanks
