Score one for Windows

If you're running Movable Type on Windows and want to install Crypt::DSA to speed up TypeKey signature processing, and are running ActivePerl 5.8, you can get it with ppm:

ppm rep add TheoryX http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/ search Math-Pari install 2 (use the last number in the list) search Crypt-Random install 2 (likewise) search Crypt-DSA install 2 (likewise) quit

Debian has a C library for PARI but not Math::Pari, and doesn't have Crypt::DSA at all.

A Japanese post about installing Crypt::DSA with ppm. I think the soulcage modules are for 5.6, though, as I got the no suitable installation target found error when I tried using it.
