in reply to Test::Unit and PPM

As Perl 5.8 is a major upgrade from the previous version it seems that most (if not all) files in the PPM-repositories must be recompiled. ActiveState seems to have run into some trouble when doing that (other than the sheer size of the work), although the worst should be over by now.

    I can downgrade to 5.6.1 but I need Test::Unit version 0.24. With ActivePerl 5.6.1 build 663 I was able to install version 0.14 of the package, only.

      Then the only solution is to compile this package yourself out of the CPAN-files.
