in reply to Odd behavior with DBM::Deep

Well, now we're getting somewhere. Checkout this oddity:
$ppm query DBM-deep Querying target 1 (ActivePerl 5.8.4.810) 1. DBM-Deep [0.94] A pure perl multi-level hash/array DBM
But...
$perl -MDBM::Deep -e" print $DBM::Deep::VERSION" 0.93
Furthermore...
$ppm upgrade DBM-Deep DBM-Deep 0.94: up to date.
and the gory details...

ppm> remove DBM-Deep

The second package listed reports as being v0.93 once installed as well. Time to file a bug with ActiveState.
