I understand they are different.. and I know how to manually find them.. but they took DBD::Pg out of the main list..
andif you use ppm on a activestate box it also does not give you the choice to load DBD::Pg anymore... only DBD::PgPP.
TheDBD::PgPP doesn't need the pgsql libraries installed to use it.. I've testing it on a windows box and am getting
readyto test it on a hpux box. If it works then it is much simpler to install on a hpux box cause you don't need the
libraries.

"They" haven't been doing anything of the sort, I hope ;-).
http://cpan.org/modules/by-module/DBD/
has the latest DBD::Pg version ...

They are very different modules. I have no idea about DBD::PgPP though.
