Hello there.

I just installed ActivePerl 5.8.0 build 804. I installed some packages using 'ppm install ...' command, but was unable to install Test::Unit this way. Look on the logs:

==== cut here ====
C:\>ppm install Test::Unit
Searching for 'Test::Unit' returned no results. Try a broader search first.

C:\>ppm2 install Test::Unit
'Installing package 'Test-Unit...
Error installing package 'Test-Unit': Could not locate a PPD file for package Test-Unit
==== cut here ====
Previosly I used ActivePerl 5.6.1 build 633 and there was no such problem. 'ppm install Test::Unit' command succesfully instaled version 0.14 of the package, then. But the lates version of Test::Unit now is 0.24. I was unable install this version with 5.6.1 too. And I didn't find anything infomative in http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/CodeDoc/Test-Unit/Test/Unit.html and in http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Modules/dist_html?dist_id=9719

Can somebody help me or say when any version of Test::Unit will be available for ActivePerl 5.8.0?

Thanks
