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

[Roy Chaudhuri]

Hi Mike.

I did get that problem solved in the end, thanks to lots of help from 
Aaron Mackey. Looking at the bioperl-l archives it seems like we stopped 
cc-ing the mailing list at some point. The last archived message in the 
thread (http://bioperl.org/pipermail/bioperl-l/2005-May/018925.html) had 
the correct solution - the code change was incorporated into the 
bioperl-ext CVS, and is in the latest version that you can get from SVN 
(see http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/Ext_package). If that doesn't solve the 
problem you must be experiencing a different issue.

You should also bear in mind the message Chris Fields sent to the list a 
few days ago, and have a look at using BioLib instead:

Hope this helps.
