[Bioperl-l] BioPerl Installation Problem...Please help me...

[Chris Fields]

The PPM hasn't been updated for Windows as of yet.  I would assume if  
you use the specified version of ActivePerl it should work still, but  
only for 1.5.2.

I am working on getting a PPM working for 1.6.1 (it was supposed to be  
posted last week) but have been flooded with other work, though it  
isn't off my agenda, just pushed back on the priority list a wee bit,  
until I can get a few other things going.
