Installation of T-COFFEE 8.06

No additional library is necessary.

This is the procedure to install T-COFFEE from source code:

• The archive with the source code has been downloaded into /home/bioubuntu, decompressed and the resulting folder moved into /opt/bio/sources.

• This filder should belong to root and its permissions set to 755.

% sudo chown -R root:root /opt/bio/sources/T-COFFEE_distribution_Version_8.06
% sudo chmod 755 /opt/bio/sources/T-COFFEE_distribution_Version_8.06

• Once you get into T-COFFEE_distribution_Version_8.06, compilation is easily done:

% sudo ./install

• The script will take some time to run. On a few occasions, it will ask you to answer some questions to install some Perl modules but the default selections are perfectly OK.

• At the end of the installation process, you need to change the owner of the ~/.t_coffee folder:

% sudo -R chmod bioubuntu:bioubuntu ~/.t_coffee

• To make sure that all users can access the application:

sudo ln -s /opt/bio/sources/T-COFFEE_distribution_Version_8.06/bin/binaries/linux/t_coffee /usr/local/bin/t_coffee

• You can do some cleanup in /opt/bio/sources/T-COFFEE_distribution_Version_8.06/bin/:

% sudo rm /opt/bio/sources/T-COFFEE_distribution_Version_8.06/bin/download/*
