Installing issue

[ramayyala]

So I am running into a bit of an issue when trying to install Falcon. The error is below. Every command that i typed before make -j all worked: export GIT_SYM_CACHE_DIR=~/.git-sym-cache # to speed things up git clone git://github.com/PacificBiosciences/FALCON-integrate.git cd FALCON-integrate git checkout develop # or whatever version you want git submodule update --init --recursive # Note: You must do this yourself! No longer via make init. make init source env.sh make config-edit-user

However, whenever i tried make -j all, this error came up. It says syntax error, but I don't seem to see where the syntax error is. Is it the commands I was typing or something else?

Try using python 2.7.9 as instructed. At least you won't get caught at very start of this awful installation >_<

This installation is really something else. I don't think I've been this frustrated trying to work things out in years.

python2.6 -- not supported. You need python2.7.

But I don't think source-code is up-to-date here anyway. We no longer keep these GitHub repos up-to-date. To use Falcon, try a binary release: https://github.com/PacificBiosciences/FALCON_unzip/wiki/Binaries

Soon, we expect to release via bio-conda.
