[Bioperl-l] Cannot download/find BPbl2seq module

[Mark A Jensen]

Jernej, this is a script that should appear in your path if you install 
bioperl from cpan and choose yes for the question "install scripts?"

Dear BioPerl community,






I am trying to use OAF [http://recode.ucc.ie/oaf/] - a Perl-based tool to 
analyze cDNA data - with a goal to detect antizyme or antizyme-like 
sequences. The publication describing the tool is available here 
[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18384676] . I installed Perl (v5.22.2) 
and BioPerl (v1.6.924) which I believe came with HMMER. I haven't installed 
FASTA and BLAST locally yet - they are both optional ( see this link 
[http://recode.ucc.ie/oaf/download] ). What I tried to do next is replicate 
the "my_sequence" example listed on this website 
[http://recode.ucc.ie/oaf/download] using the attached .pl script and 
.fasta file, but ended up stuck with the error stating I am missing a 
necessary BioPerl module - BPbl2seq - which I couldn't download from CPAN. 
I tried to locate it manually online, but it looks like it doesn't exist 
anymore. I've talked to some Perl specialists around here and it seems like 
I should reinstall Perl and BioPerl versions that were present around the 
time this software was developed (2007/2008) with a rationale that they 
will carry all the necessary modules including BPbl2seq .




I'd greatly appreciate if you could provide me with some tips on how to 
proceed. I am working on a Lenovo Yoga PC, 64-bit Windows 8.1.








I look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you and kind regards,

Jernej Turnsek
