I just thought I'd pass the following on to you from the ActiveState mailing
list.

Wouldn't it be great to have wxPerl on PPM?

Yes, there is a _chance_. :)  I actually already looked into this a couple
weeks ago, noticed that xspp or something like that wasn't on the PATH
because the build machines install scripts into a site/bin directory that
wasn't on the PATH and fixed that.  Things still didn't work though, and
after 2 hours I ran out of time (I didn't push the change to put the
site/bin directory on the PATH to the real build machines yet).

I hope to get some more time maybe next week to look into it again, but
Wx is not the most friendly module to build...

Cheers,
