[dokuwiki] Re: DokuWikiFCK-0.20 released

It's discouraging to hear that you had so much trouble installing with CPAN. In any event, it sounds as though you were finally successful in in installing DoukWikiFCK. Any future upgrades should then be simple. Just replace the old DokuWikiFCK.pm with the new one in your perl distribution directory. (On Red Hat, this defaults to /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/HTML/WikiConverter. ) And replace the old plugin directory (plugins/fckg) with the new one. There's no need to re-install using CPAN.
I know this is no help if you want to install on another Debian box. You might find it's better to skip CPAN and download the required modules and install them manually. At some point I may be able to get access to a Debian box and will try to work on the installation problems. Perhaps you could give me some idea of what kinds of problems you had. If they were problems with the DokuWikiFCK distribution I might be able to correct them without having access to Debian. I was able to do this for FreeBSD, after notification of install problems from CPANtesters. As for converting to PHP, I believe that question had been raised earlier on this list. Even if I did convert to PHP, it might not entirely solve problems such as the one you had with CPAN, because whatever I do would be based on modules found in the PEAR repository. So, you would still have this intermediary step of dealing with a module repository. In any event, converting over to PHP is something to think about for the future, but in the meantime, to be truthful, I don't have the courage to think of the labor involved. 

Best,

Myron

At first, thank you very much for your ongoing effort to improve visual editing for DokuWiki! I really like DokuWikiFCK, but I had quite a few problems installing the CPAN modules on my debian linux. Would it be possible to drop the perl module and write a php replacement for it? So installing DokuWikiFCK would only require to extract the plugin and nothing more. Do you think this is reasonable and possible? I'd like to help make installing and using the FCKeditor even easier.
