[Bioperl-l] Bio::SeqIO::staden::read make test error

[Michael Stubbington]

Thanks a lot for your help.

I finally solved the problem with a combination of:

1) Checking out the latest bioperl-ext from svn.
2) A fresh install of an earlier version of io_lib (8.12)
3) Changing <config.h> to "config.h" in os.h

Everything seems to be working now.

Best wishes,

Mike

For ABI files you'll need an older version of io_lib that supports ABI  
or the io_lib that comes with the full staden package.  Recent  
versions of io_lib don't have ABI support built-in anymore.
