[Bioperl-l] bioperl installation

[Jason Stajich]

Someone has already setup CPAN on the machine - you need to coordinate
with the sysadmin or else download the modules by hand and do the install
manualy.

for each module (Inline::C, et)
% perl Makefile.PL LIB=~/lib/perl
% make
% make install

I have logged into mendel and had the same problems, but I don't have time
to figure out the best workaround for you other than downloading the
modules by hand for now or else getting the admin to install these for
you.
