PDL upgrade debian perldl again

Ok we need a new version of pdl because the one pdl graphics demo in debian sid does not work with perl 5.10.

so go to cpan and get
PDL-2.4.3_03.tar.gz
from chris marshall CHM (search under authors).
also get
PGPLOT-2.20.tar.gz

then install them (you will need gfortran ... and
apt-get install dh-make-perl
apt-get install buildessential
debscripts (debuild)

then follow

http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/78

dh-make-perl PDL-X/
cd PDL-X
debuild
cd ..

then

dpkg -i pdl_2.4.3-7_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libpgplot-perl_2.20-1_amd64.deb
