[Bioperl-l] BIOPERL_SAVVY?

[Ewan Birney]

I have tweaked the bpfetch script so it does not fall over if LWP has not
been installed. Currently is says this:


bpfetch cannot find Bio::DB::GenBank and Bio::DB::EMBL modules
This is most likely because LWP has not been installed
This does not effect local indexing
set environment variable BIOPERL_SAVVY to supress this message


Is this a good idea? Should we standardise on environemnt variable to
suppress "helpful" warning messages or not?
