in thread What is the format of a .packlist file for a PPM repository?

Does your local repository have the packaging summary files?

In my current local repository all I have is a directory with 'ppd' files and below that a directory with the zipped code

This works with the old version of command line 'ppm' but so far I haven't been able to get the new version to work with it as it stands.

When I get back on it I plan to use your helpful information about building the packaging files and see if this solves the problem.

Bottom line - my old repository has stopped working with the new 'ppm'. I think I see how to fix it but I am still undecided if this is a 'BUG' or a 'FEATURE' :-)

Nothing succeeds like a budgie with no teeth.
