[EMBOSS] Installation problems of EMBOSS explorer

[Ryan Golhar]

It looks like you need to install other perl modules includes
Mail::Send, and Parse::RecDescent.

If you don't have root permission to install, then you can install in a
local directory.  I *think* the command is 'make
DESTDIR=/home/sea/perl5.8.5 install' where DESTDIR is the variable to
indicate the installation root.

Hi Ryan,

Here is the error shown:

I guess that I don't have a root privilege so can't access the
/usr/perl5 directory. Thus I installed perl 5.8.5 in my folder and then
modified the emboss-explorer "Makefile", but still failed.

Hope any experienced friends give me some suggestions.   :-)

Thank you!
