I checked for your ppm package, but the link is down on your website. Could you put it back up?

Thanks, Jeff

    It's working ok for me:

    What's the error you're getting ?

    UPDATE: Aaah ... I see the mistake. In my previous post I gave you the *wrong* full link. It should have been:
    ppm install http://www.sisyphusion.tk/ppm/Math-GSL.ppd
