Hey,
I built PDL with 12.10 about 5 months ago and every thing was working good
, I rebooted the system and tried to rebuild and there were problems it seems
the
links on the PDL website don't work no-more...
hence
" apt-get install libpgplot-perl "
did not install because it said the
"the link no longer exists", of course
I was rebooting at 1:00 am in the morning
and haven't retry-ed since , yet it was working fine
a couple months ago, may be someone can check tho's links
to make sure there not stale .. or that they haven't been replaced somehow
with nothing ...
Cheers
-Mark

Hi,
I was making a 12.10 "feasibilty evaluation in existence of a working machine"
based on 11.04 (here the perspective is Perl and related PDL, and more)
So I am trying to solve some specific problems as I see them in the perspective
of accept or not accept the whole as solution. If the result will not seem
satisficing "VM -> Recycle Bin".
About the software management, I also find it very good, but it cannot become
forcing to have available only what it provides. I still expect to get all I
need to build perl modules within the perl environment, and the package manager
works fine (apt-get, yum, or any other ) if and only if it is a way to supply,
in a generally accepted way (putting where other tools can find them), what is
needed to others to proceed.
If I need an header, as that used to get mod_perl with -lperl (apt-get install
libperl-dev), it is good to have the package manager providing a package for
that. That is ALL is must do.
About the technical part of the issues I will describe that in another mail, as
it could be useful to all of us. Meanwhile this is the description of the GO/NO
GO part of the story.
Thanks
