I've been poking at this for a day now and am still struggling, so any further help would be appreciated.

I don't see HTML::Entities in my ppm list output, but when I run ppm install HTML::Entities, I get "No missing packages to install". ppm install worked for HTML::TagCloud, so I have reason to think I'm doing that much right, but HTML::Entities continues to not show up. Is there a ppm configuration I need to set that determines the packages I see?

My Perl installation seems faulty somehow, however, as running perl Makefile.PL tells me Install.pm can't be located, and indeed, it doesn't appear in any of the likely locations ("/usr/local/ActivePerl-5.10/lib/Module/" was the closest I got, but it's not there, nor in any of the other locations perl is trying to find it). I have hunted around for better info on this error, but haven't found anything either on the ActivePerl forums or Perl.org, or perlmonks itself, or any of the other likely sites.

I love this idea and would get a lot of use out of it, but I think it's just beyond my technical grasp. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
