[Bioperl-l] Bioperl-db make test failures

[Hilmar Lapp]

That explains the species test failure. It tests, among other things, 
whether it can successfully insert a species. As it is not a made up 
taxon, it'll fail if you pre-loaded the ncbi taxon database.

Generally, I recommend creating a test schema for test scripts that's 
separate from the instance you use for production or anything else that 
you don't want to throw away in an instant and not be sorry.
