cpanm for lazy people

This way individual projects with specific perl requirements avoid
borking the global install.


## I'm going to use MediaWiki::API to load, so I'll install local::lib
## using cpanm.

## Step 1, install a local cpanm (and some deps)

curl -k -L http://cpanmin.us \
   | perl - -l local-lib App::cpanminus


## Step 2, install local::lib

./local-lib/bin/cpanm \
   -l local-lib local::lib

perl -Ilocal-lib/lib/perl5/ -Mlocal::lib=`pwd`/local-lib \
   > local-lib.sh

source local-lib.sh


## Step 3, install MediaWiki::API

cpanm MediaWiki::API




## ENJOY

git remote for cvs... (Switching to a new CVS server)

See http://docs.moodle.org/20/en/CVS_for_Administrators#Switching_to_a_new_CVS_server

For me, its like this:

find . -type f -name Root | \
  xargs perl -pi -e \

    's/:pserver:cvsuser:\@cvs\.sanger\.ac\.uk:\/cvsroot\/ensembl/:ext:db14\@cvs.sanger.ac.uk:\/cvsroot\/ensembl/'
