Yep, Mattia stopped making PPM's a long time ago, I think because compiling
got so much easier with Alien::...
Alltough recently I saw a mail of him thinking about creating binaries
again.
Anyway, the place to get your up to date PPM's is, and has been for quite a
while: http://www.wxperl.co.uk/
There you can also find Wx::GLCanvas.

Hiya all,
Okay, from what I can tell, no PPM package has been built using
Event.pm higher than 2005/08/07 -- Sat Aug 25 23:15:15 2007 is the
date in the subversion of the latest...
However I don't have any clue about the XS side of things. From what I
can tell, it's impossible to use GLCanvas with the binary release of
WxPerl for PPM, and I've had constant lack of success compiling it
because the Alien::Wx stuff fails both with and without MinG.
The Demo code included in the Wx::GLCanvas source calls EVENT_PAINT
which doesn't exist in the Event.pm from the released version.
Did people just stop making PPMs two years ago? Is ActivePerl
unsupported now? What's going on here?
I'd LOVE to be able to display a 3d model in a pane, considering I've
made that nice Model3d::WavefrontObject CPAN module and everything
and it would be rather cool to make some apps that use it... but I've
hit the point where after 30 unsuccessful makes and a bleak outlook
from the SVN tree, I'm wondering if I should just give up completely
on this goal...
