Dear all, The Debian-Med project is preparing Debian packages for EMBOSS. While our current packages are not ready for official release in Debian unstable or testing, they seem to be functionnal from a bioinformatical point of view. The issues are more about QA of the packaging - for instance there are conflicts between some EMBOSS binary names and other programs from other packages.
We made our packages available in the experimental section of Debian, and would be glad to hear feedback from interested users. http://packages.debian.org/experimental/science/emboss Debian offers an increasing range of programs for bioinformatics, and using packages management tools such as apt-get, aptitude or synaptic, one can automagically install programms for which EMBOSS has a wrapper: such as dialign, primer3 and clustalw. When the EMBOSS packages will be ready, we plan to further increase our support to EMBASSY and to helper databases such as REBASE. Have a nice day, -- Charles Plessy Debian-Med pacakging team, http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med/ _______________________________________________ EMBOSS mailing list [email protected] http://lists.open-bio.org/mailman/listinfo/emboss
