Question on PPM"s

When I run ppm install, it gives me the following error:

C:\tools\Perl\bin>ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/XML-LibXML-Commo
n.ppd
Installing package 'http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/XML-LibXML-Common.ppd'...
Element 'IMPLEMENTATION' cannot contain a child element 'PROVIDE' at C:/tools/Pe
rl/site/lib/PPM.pm line 1703.
Can't locate object method "rvalidate" via package "PPM::XML::PPD::PROVIDE" (per
haps you forgot to load "PPM::XML::PPD::PROVIDE"?) at C:/tools/Perl/site/lib/PPM
/XML/ValidatingElement.pm line 38.

I tried to fix it with
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/3363971 - but that did
not help. Version details follow.

Thanks in advance,

Sudarsan

The URL above specifies a Perl 5.8 repository. Replace the string "ppms"
with "ppmpackages" to get the 5.6 repository:

ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/XML-LibXML-Common.p pd

Cheers,
