[Bioperl-l] help installing pSW on OS X

[Steven Cannon]

Hello,

I am trying to install pSW on Mac OS X. I think I am following the 
Bioperl-0.72 README correctly (I wasn't able to make sense of the "Move 
to the directory Compile/SW" instruction in Bioperl-0.90). I downloaded 
bioperl-ext-06 from ftp://bioperl.org/pub/DIST, then ran the Makefile.PL 
in Bio/Ext/Align, then added -fPIC to the CCFLAGS line (since Darwin is 
BSD-ish), then tried 'make'. I get the following output and error 
(second 'make' attempt). Any suggestions?
