[Bioperl-l] Installing BioPerl

[Dave Messina]

Hey Ernesto,

I'm pretty sure you've got BioPerl version 1.6.0, which is actually  
more current than 1.5.2 that you were looking for.

Due to oddities of Perl version numbers, 1.006 = 1.6.0 (or something  
like that).

So I think you're probably good to go.

I should also mention that direct installation (i.e. not via fink)  
works pretty well these days, and through that you can get the current  
BioPerl release, which is 1.6.2 (or 1.006002000000000).

Dave
