Check whether what version of PPM you have and if you do have the latest version of ppm then download the above package of tar.gz file and do it manually

if you want to know how to install it manually from a local location then try PPM>help install

Direct from the doc...

PPM> help install

ppm2 install [--location=location] package1 [... packageN]

Installs the specified software packages. Attempts to install from the
URL or directory 'location' if the '--location' option is specfied.

The 'package' arguments may be either package names ('foo'), pathnames
(p:/packages/foo.ppd) or URLs (http://www.ActiveState.com/packages/foo.ppd)
to specific PPD files.

In the case where a package name is specified, and the '--location'
option is not used, ppm2 will refer to the default repository locations.

See also: 'confirm' option.
