[Bioperl-l] help me please!!!

Brian,

I'm suprised you are having problems with Makefile.PL - our modules 
install the same way that other CPAN style modules do:

$ perl Makefile.PL
$ make
$ make test
$ make install

Should be pretty simple...

Can you provide more information please? What version of perl are you 
using? What operating system are you trying to install on? Do you have 
write permission to the standard perl installation directory (you may 
need to be root) etc. etc.

Perhaps you can cut and paste the output from your 'perl Makefile.pl' 
and 'make test' actions?

-Chris
