As an aside, there is currently a discussion on the bioperl-l list about where
bioperl should live, on Fedora or in a third-party repository like
http://biopackages.net/.  See the thread at:

http://lists.open-bio.org/pipermail/bioperl-l/2007-March/thread.html#25279

One of the issue is in addition to this base bioperl package residing here,
there is bioperl-run which has interfaces to a number of non-free packages such
as Clustal which couldn't be packaged in Fedora.  Possibilities are:

1. Host the bioperl - the interfaces to non-free packages on Fedora and package
the non-free interfaces on biopackages.net
2. Host all bioperl-* packages on biopackages.net

I lean towards 1), but splitting up a single tarball across distributions can be
rather messy.  Ideas welcome.
