If you are having problems using the "cpan/cpanm" command, you can following this tutorial to install the BioPerl 1.7.7 distribution package manually.

1. Go to metacpan.org/pod/BioPerl.

2. Click "Download (7.18Mb)" link. And save the download file as BioPerl-1.7.7.tar.gz.

3. Unzip and untar the download file. You see the sub-directory: ./BioPerl-1.7.7

4. Go to the sub-directory and run the following commands to prepare the installation:

fyicenter$ cd BioPerl-1.7.7
fyicenter$ perl Makefile.PL

5. Use the "make" utility to install the package.

fyicenter$ make test
fyicenter$ sudo make install

6. Install all modules that are required by BioPerl. You will see missing modules listed as errors, if you run some BioPerl scripts.
