Hi guys,
Noticed that this thread had no further replies. I was wondering if this is going to be in the road map for galaxy next releases. Would be very helpful for sniffing and parsing complex datasets such as medical images.
Cheers,
Igor

Exactly - Trello request for the toolshed to handle both Python and
binary dependencies for datatypes?
(e.g. samtools is a binary dependency of the SAM/BAM datatypes,
used for conversion and indexing)

I'd manually install the Python dependencies as part of the Python
used to run Galaxy itself?
