Ok -- because I am so embarrassed about my lack of historical
BioPerl knowledge, and also about the state of the BioPerl distribution,
I decided to have a look at oaf and see if it could at least use the
latest modules. 

I think it can. In fact, oaf was shipping an instance
of Bio/Tools/Run/StandAloneBlast.pm frozen in time. That was where the
ancient BPbl2seq was used. If you installed it with perl Makefile.PL,
Jernej, you would have written over the version that comes with
BP-1.6.9. 

I pulled the frozen modules out of the original distribution
and MANIFEST, and created https://github.com/majensen/oaf-repackage. I
added hints about where to get the latest versions of the external
tools. I have tried the perl Makefile.PL,... mantra, and I seem to get
something on his test data. 

Do I have time for this? No, but good
Lord, I can't stand the idea of any self-respecting bioinformatician
installing 1.5.2.

Bio::AlignIO::bl2seq. My guess is this a module created by the author of
the oaf tool that uses bioperl under the hood. You can get a missing
module error sometimes if the module.is [11] present but contains a
syntax error.

OAF [1] - a Perl-based tool to analyze cDNA data - with a goal to detect
antizyme or antizyme-like sequences. The publication describing the tool
is available here [2]. I installed Perl (v5.22.2) and BioPerl (v1.6.924)
which I believe came with HMMER. I haven't installed FASTA and BLAST
locally yet - they are both optional (see this link [3]). What I tried
to do next is replicate the "my_sequence" example listed on this website
[4] using the attached .pl script and .fasta file, but ended up stuck
with the error stating I am missing a necessary BioPerl module -BPBL2SEQ
- which I couldn't download from CPAN. I tried to locate it manually
online, but it looks like it doesn't exist anymore. I've talked to some
Perl specialists around here and it seems like I should reinstall Perl
and BioPerl versions that were present around the time this software was
developed (2007/2008) with a rationale that they will carry all the
necessary modules including BPbl2seq.
