Re: [galaxy-dev] Easier integration of fastx-toolkit

Hi Gordon,

Thanks very much for this. I can say that having pre-compiled binaries (amd64) makes life much easier. Cheers, Chris

Hello all,

I'm trying to make the integration of the fastx-tools easier for new installations of galaxy, I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions you might have.

Steps so far:

1. new version that compiles cleanly on Ubuntu,CentOS,OpenSolaris,FreeBSD
2. detailed compilation instructions for each operating system
3. pre-compiled binaries for Linux, FreeBSD, OpenSolaris

The above are available here: http://cancan.cshl.edu/labmembers/gordon/fastx_toolkit/download_new.html

Remains to be done:

1. Do the same for MacOS-X
2. Update the XML files, probably remove "zcat" entirely.
3. rewrite the instructions for "galaxy integration" - this is not required any more, because the XML files are now part of the galaxy repository.

Please let me know if you think of anything else.

thanks, -gordon
