There's a bug in their release: `marto@Shemp:~/code/what/ViewBS-0.1.7$ ls conda doc INSTALL license.txt test.py cpanm environment.yaml INSTALL.pl README.md ViewBS data image lib Rplots.pdf ViewBSdocker` [download] And their `INSTALL.pl` looks for `cpanm` in: `## Check cpanm my $dir = dirname(abs_path $0); my $CPANM = "$dir/ext_tools/cpanm";` [download] Note the extra ext_tools directory. So when you run `INSTALL.pl` as directed by the docs, you get the error: `marto@Shemp:~/code/what/ViewBS-0.1.7$ perl INSTALL.pl PASSED: Perl version(5.026001 >= 5.14.4). Error: cpanm not found in /home/marto/code/what/ViewBS-0.1.7. Please c +heck.` [download] A quick fix would be to create a directory called `ext_tools`, and move `cpanm` in there, then continue the process: `marto@Shemp:~/code/what/ViewBS-0.1.7$ mkdir ext_tools marto@Shemp:~/code/what/ViewBS-0.1.7$ mv cpanm ext_tools/ marto@Shemp:~/code/what/ViewBS-0.1.7$ perl INSTALL.pl` [download] The previous release had this directory, and cpanm was the only thing in it. I've raised the issue over at the github repo. Update: Well, the owner fixed the issue very quickly. The system works :)	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Should I leave `cpanm` in the directory `ext_tools`? Should I copy back to Perl directory?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Sorry, I've not been around for a few days. I raised a pr to fix a couple of things. Are you still experiencing issues? Update: Merged. It fixes the cpanm permissions and a problem with the INSTALL.pl, reuse of a variable used to check installation status.	[reply]
