Hi Chris:

I've uploaded PDL-NetCDF-4.20.tar.gz to CPAN with:

'PREREQ_PM'    => { PDL => 0 },

Regards,

  Doug

Yes, that is a problem because PDL::IO::NetCDF does
require PDL, doesn't it.  You should be able to require
any version of PDL to have it work---PDL-2.2 isn't on the
market and everything else is, at least, consistent.

This is the new FAQ entry from PDL-2.007_01:

=head2 Q: 3.4  How can PDL-2.2 be older than PDL-2.007?

Over its development, PDL has used both a single floating point version
number (from the versions 1.x through 2.005) at which point it switched
to a dotted triple version for 2.1.1 onward---EXCEPT for version 2.2
which came out which should have been 2.2.0.  To simplify and unify
things, PDL has reverted to a single float version representation with
PDL-2.006.  This can cause dependency problems for modules that set a
minimum PDL version of 2.2.  The work around, it to note that all extant
PDL releases have version numbers greater than 2.2.1 so that just using
0 as the minimum version will work.

Hi Chris:

The current version includes:

---------------------------------------------------------------
$package = ["netcdf.pd",NetCDF,PDL::NetCDF];
WriteMakefile(
              'NAME'         => 'PDL::NetCDF',
              'AUTHOR'       => 'Douglas Hunt ([email protected])',
              # 'PREREQ_PM'    => { PDL => 2.2 }, # At request of Hernan De
Angelis, 9/16/2013.  Due to renumbering of PDL.
              'CCFLAGS'      => "$define_bool -g",
              'VERSION_FROM' => 'netcdf.pd',
---------------------------------------------------------------

So, I just punted and removed the requirement.  I'm not sure if anything
more is required.

Regards,

  Doug

Hi Doug-

Were you able to fix the required PDL version in PDL::NetCDF
with reference to this ticket?
