The SourceForge ParsEval package is definitely out-of-date and should not be used. This should be very clear from the SourceForge site.
The AEGeAn package is definitely what you want. Where did you download it from? Did you have trouble finding the installation instructions?
Ok, I finally made it work. As you say, I could not make work the sourceforge version. I did not found the installation instructions until I discovered the official webpage, where there are good installation instructions. Following the "for impatient people" instructions I just found a problem when downloading aegean using curl. I used wget and mv instead. Since I installed the software as non-root user, I'm pasting here my installation script, just in case it may help someone. Maybe it can be simplified and become more elegant, but it worked for me:
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential git libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev
test -d /home/eco/projects/dev/local || mkdir -p /home/eco/projects/dev/local cd /home/eco/projects/dev/local
Download, compile, and install the GenomeTools package
curl -O http://genometools.org/pub/genometools-unstable.tar.gz tar xzf genometools-unstable.tar.gz cd genometools-unstable make prefix=/home/eco/projects/dev/local 64bit=yes make prefix=/home/eco/projects/dev/local 64bit=yes install
Make sure that the compiler/linker can find the GenomeTools library
sudo sh -c 'echo "/usr/local/lib" > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/genometools-x86_64.conf'
sudo ldconfig
Download, compile, and install the AEGeAn Toolkit
curl https://github.com/standage/AEGeAn/archive/v0.12.2.tar.gz > AEGeAn-0.12.2.tar.gz
wget https://github.com/standage/AEGeAn/archive/v0.12.2.tar.gz mv v0.12.2.tar.gz AEGeAn-0.12.2.tar.gz tar xzf AEGeAn-0.12.2.tar.gz cd AEGeAn-0.12.2 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib:/home/eco/projects/dev/local/lib" sudo ldconfig make -L /home/eco/projects/dev/local/lib prefix=/home/eco/projects/dev/local test make -L /home/eco/projects/dev/local/lib prefix=/home/eco/projects/dev/local install
Cheers
I'm glad the installation instructions helped. I always welcome suggestions if any of the wording or instructions can be improved!
Hi,
I'm trying to use Parseval, so I tried to download the AEGeAn package and compile it, but it gives me this message once I type "make":
I tried also to download Parseval from sourceforge: [http://sourceforge.net/projects/parseval/files/]
I followed the README steps, so I pasted your steps in a script:
Everything seems to work fine, genometools is properly compiled, but parseval fails with this message:
Thanks in advance
