Re^2: Building a local 'ppm' repository (Windows)by LittleGreyCat (Scribe) |

Thanks - but I don't think this answers my question (or at least the one I thought I asked). A full online repository holds several versions of some packages. To replicate this in an offline repository you would need to hold several versions of the same package. To do this you would need a unique 'ppd' file for each version. For some reason the 'ppd' files are not version specific, so you can't directly build an offline repository from the ActiveState ZIP archive.
I am not looking for a '.ppm' repository with only the most recent modules, I am looking for as near as possible a 'mirror' of the online repository. You can build a CPAN mirror with 'CPAN::Mini'; I just want the same for 'ppm'.
