====== Installation of RNAMotif 3.0.5 ======

===== Additional librairies ===== 

The following libraries are necessary to successfully compile RNAmotif:

   * ''bison''
   * ''byacc''
   * ''flex''

<code bash>
% sudo apt-get -y install bison byacc flex
</code>

===== Procedure =====

Here is the procedure to install RNAMotif from its source code:

  * The archive has been downloaded from the web in ''/home/bioubuntu'', decompressed and the newly created folder moved into ''/opt/bio/sources''.

  * This folder should belong to ''root'' and its permissions should be set to ''755''.

<code bash>
% sudo chown -R root:root /opt/bio/sources/rnamotif-3.0.5
</code>

  * Once you are in ''/opt/bio/sources/rnamotif-3.0.5'', compilation is easily done:

<code bash>
% sudo mkdir bin 
% cd ./src
% sudo make 
</code>

  * After compilation, I move the executables in ''/opt/bio/sources/rnamotif-3.0.5/bin'':
<code bash>
% find . -perm 755
// You will get a list
// of executables
% sudo mv <item> ../bin
</code>

  * To make sure everyone has access to the programs, I modified the ''/etc/profile'' file by adding these lines:
<code bash>
#
# RNAMotif specific environment variable
#
PATH=/opt/bio/sources/rnamotif-3.0.5/bin:$PATH
EFNDATA=/opt/bio/sources/rnamotif-3.0.5/efndata
