Hi! Marco, does installing from ppd file download and install properly?
I had some problems installing from the PPD file because ppm write temporary files to $HOME/My Documents/Local Settings/Temp, however, on Swedish system this is named $HOME/Mina Document/Lokala Inställning/Temp where the aumlaut cause encoding confusion (likely a problem between cp850 and Windows Latin 1 encodings.) I tried to bypass the encoding problem by creating a directory with the malencoded name, $HOME/Mina Dokument/Lokala instõllningar/Temp, however I must redo this again because I don't remember why this failed... (maybe a 404 file-not-found occured when ppm tried to download.) In addition, downloading the tarball and unarchive it with winzip failed because the folder hierarchy was not preserved. I therefore runned MinGW's gnutar on the archive and it decompressed properly, preserving the folder hierarchy. But making the install target from MinGW's MSys terminal placed some files into "wrong" folder (in to Perl/site/lib/arch/Pg, which I manually putted in Perl/site/lib/auto/Pg.) This worked. Right know I'm very busy, but I can retry install from the PPD file and give a more detail explanation later (this was also my plan :-).) I also need to check how to set encoding properly in the Windows commandprompt etc. to satisfy ppm tool. If you are trying installing on a english/ASCII compatible system, there shouldn't be this problem. As far for the encoding, my plan is to specify encoding with a cmd.exe switch (e.g. cmd.exe /???:cp819), and add a system environmental variable, too. (e.g. LANG=C and LC_ALL=sv.UTF-8). But I haven't tried this yet.
