[ensembl-dev] problem git installation bioperl

[mr6 at ebi.ac.uk]

Hi Julien,

Thank you for your feedback.

The Ensembl API and webcode are compatible with Bioperl 1.6.1
This is the version we are using for the live server and we do not
guarantee compatibility with any newer versions.

This is reflected in our installation guide:
http://www.ensembl.org/info/docs/api/api_installation.html


Regards,
Magali
