I have tried to install gff with easy_install, but I got the following error: $ easy_install --prefix=/home/mic/apps/pymodules -UZ https://github.com/chapmanb/bcbb/tree/master/gff Downloading https://github.com/chapmanb/bcbb/tree/master/gff error: Unexpected HTML page found at https://github.com/chapmanb/bcbb/tree/master/gff
How is it possible to install gff?
I don't know of a way to install directly from git with subdirectories like that. You'd need to clone, then install with easy_install or pip:
$ git clone git://github.com/chapmanb/bcbb.git $ easy_install bcbb/gff $ pip install bcbb/gff
Apologies about the convoluted setup. Depending on what you're doing, you might want to have a look at gffutils:

We're working on rolling the functionality from the gff library into this so there'll be one place to work from for GFF in python.
Hope this helps, Brad
