I am trying to install Chado for a large-scale genomics project. To
install prerequisites (using CPAN), everything looks good until
installing Bundle::GMOD. I got the following error message:<br>
<br>
<i>Is it OK to try to connect to the Internet? [yes] <br>

This looks like a CPAN issue, however CPAN was perfectly fine while
installing BioPerl and GO-Perl. Can you please pass this message to a
Chado expert to figure out what goes wrong here? I desperately need
some help after many attempts.<br>
<br>
Many thanks in advance.<br>
