The most straightforward way to install BamM is to use GNU Guix. After installing Guix itself:
$ guix pull
$ guix package --install bamm
This will install BamM itself, as well as all of its dependencies including BWA, samtools, python, numpy, grep, etc. without polluting the rest of your system. BamM was incorporated into the master branch of Guix on 14 Aug, 2016 so is not included in Guix 0.11.0, but will likely be included in the version following. So, if you are using a newer version the ‘guix pull’ is not needed.
Hey Tim, just adding this bit to the manual

I note also that the email address on http://ecogenomics.github.io/BamM/
is out of date too - I guess it makes sense to add your email. thanks.
