[Bioperl-l] CPAN/Bioperl can't find modules

[Darwin Sorento Dichmann]

Wet biologist here trying to get into NGS/bioperl/gbrowse. Something funky is going on in my gbrowse2 installation and in an attempt to fix it I reinstalled bioperl as well as other perl modules through CPAN (default settings, OSX 10.6).

When I run CPAN -O to test if all modules are up to date I get a lot of errors like this (excerpt):

However, when I test the module in perl debugger it finds this:
---------
 DB<11> use Bio::DB::SeqFeature::Store print $Bio::DB::SeqFeature::Store::VERSION                                                                               
1.006001
---------
I assume that something in the environment is not set up right and in general I have had a good deal of problems that might relate to this. If anyone have some pointers to what it could be I'd be grateful. 

On a side note: Is there a way to search bioperl mailing list archives? I might be retarded and I couldn't figure out how. 

Happy New Year,
Darwin
