HHi Marius, Many thanks for this detailed information. I reinstalled the pearl package and it has now the 8.25 version as an additional dependency. The tool seems to work as well. Thanks again, I will ignore the 8.22 version. Cheers, Philipp From: Marius van den Beek [mailto:m.vandenbeek@gmail.com] Sent: Donnerstag, 24.

We (the IUC) have changed from coreutils-8.22 to coreutils-8.25 for exactly the reason you are reporting (`...generated no output for the defined timeout period of 3600.0 seconds`). So you should update your installation of package_perl_5_18_1. Unfortunately, no stable release of galaxy up till now can handle this change of dependencies cleanly. (16.04 will be the first release that should have no problem with this). When you are doing an update of package_perl_5_18_1, you should have gnu-coreutils-8.25 listed as one of perl's dependencies, as well as gnu-coreutils-8.22. For the moment the best thing you can do is to ignore the status of gnu-coreutils-8.22. Once you upgrade galaxy to release_16.04 or newer, repairing package_perl_5_18_1 will remove gnu-coreutils-8.22 from the list of dependencies of perl. This should not affect the functionality of perl or meme. Let us know how it goes Marius On 24 March 2016 at 09:23, Rathert, Philipp, Dr. <philipp.rathert(a)ibc.uni-stuttgart.de <mailto:philipp.rathert@ibc.uni-stuttgart.de> > wrote: Dear Nicola, now it looks like package_gnu_coreutils_8_22 is generating an error gnu_coreutils <http://129.69.102.42/admin_toolshed/manage_repository_tool_dependencies?r... 8.22 package Error Shutting down process id 23231 because it generated no output for the defined timeout period of 3600.0 seconds.

Go to the Admin interface, "Manage installed tools", click on the "package_perl_xml_parser_expat_2_41", then from the "Repository Actions" menu select "Manage tool dependencies", select the dependency in error and "Uninstall", then select it again and "Install" it.
