[Bioperl-l] problems with clustalw

[vdar at yorku.ca]

Yes, seems like it worked, now I am having the following error message which is
not because of the errors in installation..right?

$ perl mult_align.pl
Can't call method "isa" without a package or object reference at
/opt/rocks/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8//Bio/Tools/Run/Alignment/Clustalw.pm line
617.
