in thread (Warning) If you use AS then wait for 633

Hi crazy,

Good to see you are in your usually challenging mood ;-)

All I can do is quote the email I recived from Gurusamy Sarathy

>Oh, and the boys on PM are raving about AS 632. (I didnt notice ther +e was a >new release.) Apparently they are quite impressed with some of the ch +anges. >Looks like another job well done. :-) Thanks. FYI, 632 unfortunately had a rather serious bug in PPM3 ("upgrade" didn't work) so there will be a 633 build shortly with that fix.
To be honest since I installed AS 632 i havent used either PPM or PPM3. So I really couldnt say if Gurusamy is correct. OTOH, I see no reason to disbelieve the man, after all he is primarily responsible for the creation of a stable, integrated Win32 Perl, not to mention being one of the senior developers at ActiveState.

    From ppm3 help:
    upgrade - shows availables upgrades for installed packages
    I can't say that this not working seems like a big issue, for me anyway (glancing at the module upload lists every now and then to check if I really need to upgrade an important module.) - perhaps for a professional sysadmin this is important though?

    Cheerio!
