Probably, in making up the ppd package for Win32::IEAutomation, the dependency on the module Win32::OLE got translated into a dependency on the ppm package Win32-OLE. While this s/::/-/g translation from module to package name often works, it fails sometimes - in this case, Win32::OLE is found within the libwin32 package, which already comes installed with ActivePerl. The solution is to remove the dependency on Win32-OLE within the Win32-IEAutomation ppd file.
