[Bioperl-l] Problems with installing Bioperl-ext-1.5.1 on Bioperl-1.5.1

[Joel Martin]

Hello,
  I found that 1.5.1 a pain to install, I recommend the code from

http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/Ext_package#The_latest_code

  anywho, the read is read.pm, the message is something from
inline::c I think, there's an old bug report about it, if
you can't use the newer code maybe it will help.
