Hello, I was trying to install PDL 2.4.9 in Ubuntu 11.04 with perl
5.10.1, and the installation failed because:

----
/usr/bin/perl "-I../../blib/arch" "-I../../blib/lib" Core.xs.PL Core.xs
Extracting Core.xs (WITH bad value support)
/usr/bin/perl -I../../blib/arch -I../../blib/lib -I/usr/lib/perl/5.10

/usr/share/perl/5.10/ExtUtils/typemap -typemap typemap Core.xs >
Core.xsc && mv Core.xsc Core.c
Could not find a typemap for C type 'PDL_Long *' in Core.xs, line 1144

make: *** [subdirs] Error 2
  CHM/PDL-2.4.9.tar.gz
  /usr/bin/make -- NOT OK
----

I have seen that there is a bug report about this from one month ago
but it says that is fixed:

----
failure to find PDL typemap - ID: 3377113
resolution:Fixed
----

I have checked my version of ExtUtils::ParseXS and is the latest one:
----
ExtUtils::ParseXS is up to date (3.04).
----

Not knowing how to solve this problem I have installed PDL with
apt-get (pdl version  2.4.7) but now I have problems updating some
packages that want the latest PDL:

----
PDL::Stats::GLM has known issue with PDL-2.4.7. Please update PDL and
retry installation.
No 'Makefile' created  MAGGIEXYZ/PDL-Stats-0.5.5.tar.gz
  /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site -- NOT OK
----

How should report this CPAN install failure. The bug entry is closed
and I don't know if it is appropriate to open a new bug, or if it is
indeed solved and I am missing something trivial.

Any help would be truly appreciated.
