Sorry for the newbie question.
I am having trouble installing Bioperl.
I'm on MacOSX 10.5.8.
I downloaded and installed fink:
$ fink --version
Package manager version: 0.27.13
Distribution version: 0.9.0 i386
I then downloaded Bioperl-1.6.1, I'm trying to install it from source,
as explained (http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/Getting_BioPerl). I have
Xcode installed etc.
'# fink install bioperl-pmXXX'
I try this:
BioPerl-1.6.1 James$ fink install BioPerl-pm
Information about 2521 packages read in 1 seconds.
Failed: no package found for specification 'BioPerl-pm'!
The version of perl I'm running is 5.8.8, I have tried 'fink install
BioPerl588' but this doesn't work either.
Thanks very much,
James
