Re: What's up with Class::DBI on Activestate Perl on windows via PPM?by shenme (Priest) |

You are not alone. I've emailed ActiveState every couple months since February, stating the .ppm has been wrong since June 2004.
Also see Repository has incorrect version of Class::DBI (2005-01-26) which I couldn't find the first time around. There are now other reports, which are also marked 'unconfirmed' It's not like they don't know about the problem. I can't imagine they don't know the usefulness of Class::DBI. You would think they would be embarrassed. Update: ikegami is right though. In one of my emails I mentioned the increasingly frequent times I see people saying "just use CPAN" to install, and asked AS "why that might be?". Anyway, after you've installed by other means, run this (distilled from other people's postings) to update the AS html docs: perl -M"ActivePerl::DocTools" -e "ActivePerl::DocTools::UpdateHTML(); ActivePerl ::DocTools::WriteTOC();"
