I'm hoping I am missing something easy. Is there some way to tell a local PPM install to use a dependency in an install command?

The problem:
I have an internal server with no internet connection (network only). I need to install SOAP-Lite module from PPM. We know we can download the .ppd and it's corresponding .tar.gz, and let PPM install it locally. I have installed all the other requisite modules for SOAP-Lite this way (FCGI,MIME-Tools,MIME-Lite,Crypt-SSLeay ,etc). Also worth mentioning: PPM install SOAP-LITE works perfect on a machine with internet connectivity. All requisite modules are sorted out.

So here I am on a machine with no webz, and I have all the modules downloaded to a local directory.

SOAP-Lite requires SOAP-Transport-TCP - but trying to install SOAP-Transport-TCP, it says it requires SOAP-Lite. Is there some way to tell PPM to install both, using SOAP-Transport as a dependency?

PS X:\> ppm install .\SOAP-Lite-0.715.ppd ppm.bat install failed: Can't find any package that provides SOAP::Tra +nsport::TCP for SOAP-Lite PS X:\> ppm install .\SOAP-Transport-TCP-0.715.ppd ppm.bat install failed: Can't find any package that provides SOAP::Lit +e for SOAP-Transport-TCP
