[Bioperl-l] bioperl::db

[Bernd Mueller]

Hello list,

I figured out my problem. Actually it was because of problems in the 
versioning of bioperl. It is described to figure out the available 
versions of bioperl in CPAN but afterwards it is described to install a 
much higher version wich is not listed as distribution in CPAN. So it 
works fine now. Thanks anyway. Proficiency in reading results in success ;-)

But I have another question: Does anyone know how to retrieve free 
fulltext documents with EUtilities from Pubmed Central? All my queries 
result in a corpora of free and non-free articles.

Thanks and regards,

Bernd
