[Bioperl-l] Bio-Root has no Build.PL

[Francisco J. Ossandón]

Everything is currently working fine on my end, using Strawberry Perl, BUT I
remember somebody reported troubles when using ActiveState Perl... I had to
stop analyzing pending bugs on Redmine because I was getting too delayed on
my job project, but I can try to install ActiveState Perl and check if there
are quick adjustments that can be made on that end...

I'll give it a look tomorrow and tell you my findings.

Cheers,

Francisco J. Ossandon

It can have one, but it would be wiped by a dzil release run (which creates
a Build.PL for the releases as it handles lots of the specific steps of a
release, such as POD syntax checking, tests, etc).  The only other reason
would be to have a way of installing it locally, but I’m not sure of the
utility of that on a master branch.  Test runs can be done with ‘prove -lr
t/‘, so is there any (good!) reason to have it?

Also, it’s not on CPAN b/c there hasn’t been a 1.7 release yet (that would
be the first with Bio::Root as a separate release, the 1.6.x branch in
bioperl-live still has it).  I’ll check in with Francisco on the status of a
final 1.6.x release, there were a few things pending on the Windows end but
maybe they’re addressed.  There is one blocking issue re: versions assigned
to the modules that caused problems with v.1.6.923.
