[Bioperl-l] Test my bioperl 1.5.2-c PPD

[Chris Fields]

Nathan,

I managed to install the Bioperl 1.5.2 PPM via the PPM4 GUI.  I think
Bundle::BioPerl also worked but I can't be sure; I already have all of the
modules required.  I'll try a fresh ActivePerl installation to see what
happens, as well as try the command line PPM.

I also noticed the scripts installed as well.  So far, looks good!
