In general, they *are* pretty much the same. However, PAR ppm's have been a
little fussy of late. I haven't seen that exact error that you reported, but
I've seen a similar error when a PAR built using perl 5.8.6 was used on perl
5.8.7 (and/or vice versa). That's why I specified Randy's PAR-587 ppm ....
because I know it was built using perl 5.8.7, and should therefore work fine
on perl 5.8.7. (And I also know that it's the latest version 0.90.) Of
course, there's no guarantee that it *will* work fine for you - but if it
doesn't work for you, then at least we've eliminated one possible source of
the problem and can concentrate on looking elsewhere.
I presume you're using ActiveState perl. Which build ?
I use 5.8.6 (build 811). This version seems to work great with the
'bribes' PAR ppm. I have not test on 5.8.7 yet, but I suspect it should
be ok as well.
For me the problem is solved. I do hope though that installing from
ActiveState repository can be as trusty as it was.
