Shall we release the bioperl-run, bioperl-db, and bioperl-pipeline pkgs
with the same version number as bioperl (1.1).  We can do it s.t.
bioperl-pipeline 1.1.1 is compatible with bioperl 1.1 but bioperl-pipeline
1.2 is not necessarily?  This sort of means we have to do the major pkg
releases in lock step with the bioperl core releases.  Is this okay or is
it going to be a major pain later on?

I don't want us to get into confusing situtations for users - as it is
already a pain upgrading perl modules w/o doing with a pkg manager.
