[Bioperl-dev] removing old BioPerl from CPAN

[Dave Messina]

Hi Ewan and Sendu,

I don't know if you saw my recent post on the BioPerl mailing list about
removing old BioPerl files from CPAN (
http://bioperl.org/pipermail/bioperl-l/2011-January/034423.html). In a
nuthell, some users are mistakenly installing these old versions instead of
the current ones.

After consultation with the CPAN admins, I've learned that the best solution
is for the distribution authors to delete the files through PAUSE:

    https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=delete_files


It would be a big help to us if you could go in and delete the old BioPerl
files under your name.

For Ewan, I believe it would be these:

BIRNEY/bioperl-1.4.tar.gz
BIRNEY/bioperl-db-0.1.tar.gz
BIRNEY/bioperl-ext-1.4.tar.gz
BIRNEY/bioperl-gui-0.7.tar.gz
BIRNEY/bioperl-run-1.4.tar.gz


And for Sendu, these:

bioperl-1.5.2_102
bioperl-db-1.5.2_100
bioperl-network-1.5.2_100
bioperl-run-1.5.2_100



Thanks very much,
Dave
