The command from within the `cpan` tool is: `install Getopt::Long` [download] ... but Getopt::Long should come distributed with your Perl anyway. If your vendor did not distribute this module with Perl, they likely offer a separate package which brings in everything that makes the Perl distribution complete and compliant with the license.

Give me a moment, I'm just setting up the non perl dependencies for this tool, I can see some further issues. I'll reply again shortly. Update: in the short term, just: `cd ext_tools ./cpanm Getopt::Long::Subcommand ./cpanm Bio::DB::HTS::Tabix ./cpanm Bio::SeqIO` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Thank you The first and the third command gave me the following: `Getopt::Long::Subcommand is up to date. (0.103) Bio::SeqIO is up to date. (1.7.5)` [download] And the second comand went through a installation procedure.	[reply] [d/l]
