Very interesting.
Most folks just use the ppm GUI, but there are quite a number of
command line options for ppm. I have "cloned" an Active State installation before. To do that, I saved a profile (which is an XML file)... Installed Active State from the web on the new machine and then restored the "profile" on the new machine. BTW, there are more PPD repositories than just the main Active State repo. Just for fun, I just did a "ppd upgrade --install" on my current test machine. Go to lunch while this is running because it can take awhile. Many thousands of files on my machine were modified. However, it appears that all of my packages have been brought up to date, including the HTML doc's. A "dangerous" thing to do, but this a a test machine - not production. Anyway, for those interested, muck around with ppm at the command line....
