Perl general comments:
o Perl must be 5.005 or higher. We tend to test on
5.6 Perl. Perl 5.8 definitely works, but might have
small errors
o Perl on Digital Unix, WindowsNT, and MacOS has been reported
to have problems with the Bio::DB::GDB on module (and
consequently the test GDB.t). This is due to different
versions of HTML::Parser.
o DB.t has intermittent time-out failures (which will most
likely cause tests 3 and/or 27 to fail).
o Index.t will fail if you have an out-of-date DBM file
installation or a bad DB_File installation
Tested systems & OS Specific Comments or Warnings
==================================================
Machine : RedHat Linux 7.2 i686
Compiler: cc
Perl : 5.004-5.6.1
Comments: XML::Writer tests fails (segfault), but do an install/force anyways
and all will work.
Machine : Linux i386
Compiler: cc
Perl : 5.004-5.6.1
Comments: none
Machine : Digital Unix
Compiler: cc
Perl : 5.004
Comments: Failure on GDB.t, possibly due to LWP cissues
Machine : OpenBSD 2.8 i386
Compiler: cc
Perl : 5.6.0
Comments: none
Machine : Solaris 2.8 UltraSparc
Compiler: gcc
Perl : 5.6.0
Comments: none
Machine : FreeBSD 4.2 i386
Compiler: gcc
Perl : 5.005_03
Comments: none
Machine : IRIX64 6.5 SGI
Compiler: cc
Perl : 5.004_04
Comments: Some warnings about <HANDLE> which can be safely
ignored. Bio::DB::GenBank/GenPept cannot be used because
IO::String cannot be installed on 5.004. Bio::DB::GDB will
not work on pre 5.005 versions of perl.
The makefile's should now work without shell modifications.
Let us know if that's an issue
Machine : Win32, WinNT i386
Compiler: --
Perl : ActiveState Perl 5.6, 5.5.1
Comments: Be sure that the module DB_File is installed and up-to-date
to allow Bio::Index modules to work properly.
Installing ppm's IO-stringy and IO-String and File-Temp are
necessary as well.
See INSTALL.WIN for more information
Machine : CygWin NT_5 v. 1.3.10,18 on Windows 2000 5.00
Compiler: gcc
Perl : 5.6.1,5.8
Comments: Recommend that blastall app be obtained from NCBI
(blast/executables/blastz.exe). expat is part of Cygwin.
Cygwin has an error in the SearchIO test, possibly due to some
temporary file issues
Machine : MacOS
Compiler: --
Perl : MacPerl
Comments: Issues and possible ways to fix them summarized by Todd Richmond
on the bioperl.org Wiki. We don't recommend using Bioperl on
MacOS 9 systems
Machine : MacOS X
Compiler: gcc
Perl : 5.6.0
Comments: Steve Cannon has made available Bioperl OS X installation
directions and notes online at the following URL:
http://www.tc.umn.edu/~cann0010/Bioperl_OSX_install.html
Machine : HP-UX / PA-RISC 11.0
Compiler: gcc
Perl : 5.6.1
Comments: Tested by (dag@sonsorol.org) on a barebones 8-cpu system without the
various dependencies installed. All tests pass except those
skipped by the test harness due to missing external packages. Thanks
due to HP for providing the OBF with an Itanium workstation plus
internet access to other HP test platforms. Feedback from HP-UX users
is appreciated.
Machine : HP-UX / Itanium ('ia64') 11.0
Compiler: gcc
Perl : 5.6.1
Comments: Tested by (dag@sonsorol.org) on a barebones 4-cpu system without the
various dependencies installed. 96% of the tests pass; OBF is
working on getting 100% pass rate. Thanks due to HP for providing
the OBF with an Itanium workstation plus internet access to other
HP test platforms. Feedback from HP-UX users is appreciated.
