[Bioperl-l] Portability

[Jason Stajich]

There is no reason this shouldn't work, I regularly use the same bioperl
dist in path on OSF1, Solaris, and Linux boxes by having my PERL5LIB path
pointing to the same dir in my homedir.

However, you'll still need to install all the necessary support modules
GD, IO::String, LWP etc on the separate machines.  There isn't any
architecture specific code in the core modules but you would need to build
and install separately the bioperl-ext module if you are interested in
that specialized functionality.
