With BioPerl, there are these repositories that you connect to, so you figure them out before you start installing BioPerl, and there are external modules too:
- BioPerl-Release Candidates.
- BioPerl Regular Releases.
- Kobes.
- Bribes.
are the major repositories out there. It seems that there are a lot of dependencies involved and there are like 4 different ways to install BioPerl hence confusion erupts. Anyways, this link provides very nice instructions on how to connect these repositories via PPM GUI and PPM-Shell...
After having installed BioPerl successfully, you might need to manage the PPM and enable/disable some of these repositories so as to maintain your ppm interface responsiveness, check PPM performs uneeded checks for a related discussion.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
