[Bioperl-l] compiling Bio::Perl error in Bio/Root

Wed Oct 24 02:47:04 UTC 2012

The Clone issue is still puzzling.  It's a bit reminiscent of what Red Hat used to do with Scalar::Utils and ActiveState with DB_File on Windows (release a dummy or crippled module).  My guess is this may cause problems at some point regardless of the Bioperl install, so would be worth checking out.

The clone() method will alias to Storable's dclone() if Clone isn't installed; somehow it thinks Clone is present when it isn't (or there is a Clone module installed w/o the clone() method). Can you run 'perldoc Clone' to see if Clone is installed?
