Bioperl: off topic Beowulf question

[Jonathan Epstein]

A bit off-topic, but you should never have to edit the makefile ... you
should be able to do whatever you want from the Unix command line.  The
makefiles are quite hairy, but they're that way because they offer lots of
flexibility, e.g., the ability to compile without using Motif.

If you need help with this then try writing to toolbox@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.
