David's suggestion was a good one, but quite a lot (and possibly all you 
need) of BioPerl is usable just with the bioperl-1.5.2_102.tar.gz file 
you already have.

Just follow the 'hard way' instructions:

Actually, its not that hard. Just extract the files from the .tat.gz and 
  have your perl lib point at the resulting Bio directory.
