Hi, I'm now back from Milan and working part-time at the University of Aberdeen again. We are upgrading all our Bio-Linux 8 (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) machines to Ubuntu-MATE 18.04 LTS + med-bio + med-bio-dev as prototypes to use during the development of Bio-Linux 9.
So far the only problem I've encountered is a bug in the "metaphlan2" package that I reported here and Andreas acted on. However, the updated package is not yet in the Debian Sid repository that Ubuntu is based on. Installing "med-bio" under Ubuntu-MATE 18.04 currently fails installing "metaphlan2", but that problem can be resolved by manually installing an updated version of the package from a .deb locally. I really appreciate the work that the Debian-Med team have been doing to incorporate many of the 'missing' packages from Bio-Linux 8 because it makes development of Bio-Linux 9 based on Ubuntu-MATE 18.04 LTS and the packages from "med-bio" a practical proposition.
