Hi All, Padre PPM's are now available for
MSWin - Perl 5.10 / 5.8 Linux - Perl 5.10 MacOSX - Perl 5.10 Not that PPM's are such a big deal, Padre being pure Perl, but the repositories do provide working portable wxWidgets binaries for Linux - glibc 2.5+ MacOSX - 10.4/10.5/10.6 ppc & intel so it is a quick way to take a look at Padre. The URL to point someone at is http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repository/ppm-repository.html There are 3 problems folks might face when installing Padre from PPM 1) All platforms - you must install the ppm for Debug::Client before Padre. Why this dependency does not work and the other 82 do, I don't know. (it is purely a ppm problem on my part - nothing to do with the modules themselves). Maybe I'll figure out the problem - but not yet. 2) MSWin - the PPM package manager will load the ActiveState Wx by default - which will prevent users from using any other xs based modules from my site - reason is ActiveState build using VC6. I don't as I use many of the recent graphic features in wxWidgets - which aren't available in the ActiveState built version (cannot be built with VC6). You cannot mix MinGW and VC6 within Wx. So - if you want the extra xs modules, install the Wx PPM specifically from the http://www.wxperl.co.uk site before you install Padre Hope this helps you spread the word.
