Seventh has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Greetings monks!
I manage a small CVS repository for my code team, and am trying to puzzle out the following. We do development under Cygwin, using AS Perl 5.8.x and the PDK on each machine. I'm trying to make an installable PPM from a source tarball of Geo:Coordinates:UTM.
I grabbed the tarball from CPAN, ran the Makefile, and get a whole stack of errors basically saying "You are not doing this properly".
So my question is (and hopefully it's not too vague), how do I go about creating a PPM from a source tar from CPAN?
Any insight very much appreciated at always. Thanks much!
