[Bioperl-l] Bug 1386

[Brian Osborne]

Bioperl-l,

Gordon is saying:

The INSTALL file for Bio::Perl suggests using:

  perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/.../.../...

to install in a non-standard location.  I think the best way to do this is
to
use:

  perl Makefile.PL LIB=/where/I/want/it

and then the scripts just need to have:

 use lib qw( /where/I/want/it );

This should always work as it ignores all INSTALL* values and really does
put
everything under LIB in the correct way.


Can someone confirm that what Gordon says is true? I can't, I usually have
sudo available. If so we can resolve Bug 1386.
