I'd suggest leaving the 'ppd' action as is, and create a new 'ppm_dist' action that runs the 'ppd' action and creates an archive of the blib directory, running the 'build' action if neccessary. Ken? Attached is a patch that adds a new 'ppm_dist' action. It accepts a 'codebase' argument just like the 'ppd' action. This action runs the 'ppd' action and then builds an archive of the blib directory. Glenn, this should allow you to "install on the same machine it is built on". The 'ppd' action remains unchanged. Please let me know if this patch is correct. Note that this does not address the problems with archivers being unable to read A::T created archives, but that should not affect this as A::T should be able to read the archives it creates. Regards, Randy. |
