biochris has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, It might sound a silly question, but I am not able to install Perl/Tk on windows 2000 using ppm. I have install it in the past several times without problems. Now, all I get is: PPM> install Tk Install package 'Tk?' (y/N): y Installing package 'Tk'... Error installing package 'Tk': Could not locate a PPD file for package Tk Am I doing something obviously wrong? I am really sorry to bother for something like that, but I have tried everything, and I need to run a Perl/Tk application on two new machines. Any clue will be appreciated :)

Edit g0n - retitled from "Perl/Tk"

    What perl installation do you have? I point out that the ActiveState Perl distribution includes Tk already.
      Thanks for the reply jdporter, On the two machines I try to install Tk, I have 5.6.1. Is it the 5.8 that includes Tk?
        I'm pretty sure that AS perl included Tk at least as far back as 5.6.1 Are you sure you have ActiveState perl installed?
