NAME¶
Bio::Root::Build - A common Module::Build subclass base for BioPerl
distributions
SYNOPSIS¶
...TO BE ADDED
DESCRIPTION¶
This is a subclass of Module::Build so we can override certain methods and do
fancy stuff
It was first written against Module::Build::Base v0.2805. Many of the methods
here are copy/pasted from there in their entirety just to change one or two
minor things, since for the most part Module::Build::Base code is hard to
cleanly override.
Note: per bug 3196, the majority of the code in this module has been
revised or commented out to bring it in line with the Module::Build API. In
particular, 'requires/recommends' tags in the Build.PL file were not of the
same format as those for Module::Build, and so caused serious issues with
newer versions (including giving incorrect meta data). Other problematic
methods involving automatic installation of prereq modules via CPAN were also
removed as they do not work with more modern perl tools such as perlbrew and
cpanm.
FEEDBACK¶
Mailing Lists¶
User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl
modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing

Support¶
Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:
bioperl-l@bioperl.org
rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive
experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please
include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if
at all possible.
