Hi Aaron,
Thanks so much for your quick response. I know that Mauve is great for
genome alignments, and I find the contig mover very useful, which is why
I want to incorporate it into this pipeline. My coworkers and I have
tried to run the contig mover with both the most recent snapshot and
with snapshots shortly following the post I linked below, and we keep
getting similar errors. Here is an example of a command we've been
trying and the errors we've been getting:
java -Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx500m -cp
/home/jshay/Programs/mauve/mauve_snapshot_2011-12-16/Mauve.jar
org.gel.mauve.contigs.ContigOrderer -output 0093mauvetest -ref 0093.gbk

Do you know of something we might be doing wrong on our end? If we get
this to work, we can use a snapshot and reference the date stamp as you
suggest. Thanks again!

Hi Julie,
There will be another release with a traditional numeric version
identifier eventually, but as it currently stands the development
snapshots are about as "stable" as research software gets. There are a
number of cosmetic bugs but no major bugs that I am aware of in terms of
the calculation of genome alignments. If you want to incorporate to your
pipeline, I would suggest referencing the datestamp as the software
version -- the snapshots will remain available to the public so that
reproducibility of results by others can be achieved by obtaining a
matching datestamped build of the software.
Best,

Hi,
Are there currently any plans for an official release of a Mauve
update? We would like to use the Mauve Contig Mover from the command
line on our lab's cluster without an X-display, and I see that you've
done an unofficial update that allows this
( http://sourceforge.net/p/mauve/mailman/message/28484265/ ), but I
was wondering whether your plans regarding a formal release have
changed in the past 2.5 years? We're trying to integrate the Mauve
Contig Mover into one of our pipelines, and we want to be confident
that the version we use is stable. Thanks!
