Adding CPAN repository in the list of repositories available for PPM

55 New Member
Hi,
I have seen that some modules which are available on CPAN are not listed in ActiveState repository. So those are not available to install by using ppm. I find out the way of adding adding repository in ppm given below,

Way to add repository:
To use these package repositories you start PPM and at the prompt type

set repository NAME URL

e.g: set repository JENDA http://Jenda.Krynicky. cz/perl

Before you exit PPM you should save the changes to the configuration by issuing the command 'set save'.

My questions are:
1. What is the URL for CPAN repository
2. Can we able to install the modules from CPAN repository using ppm


Thank you.

1. http://cpan.org/modules/by-module/
2. I would assume so as it is just another repository to point to. I don't have tons of experience with PPM. On the cpan.org site there are also instructions on how to install modules for each OS as well.

Regards,

Jeff

Hello, Does anyone know of how I can have an inhouse repository for PEAR sources, I would like to use PEAR internally for configuration management of our own servers; make components of our own website into PEAR packages and use PEAR to install/upgrade them on our various servers. However, I can find no documentation of the pear.conf file anywhere, it looks like a serialized array, any clue how to edit it?

Hello All, I have been using Fedora Core 4/5 for a networking application. I came to know that it does not have the library corresponding to the SYSCTL API, used to interface with the routing table and etc. Similar is the situation for the library used to access data-link layer (L2) and packet generation functionalities.
