[Bio-Linux] New and updated packages in Bio-Linux: Catchall + Mira + Mothur + Artemis/ACT

[Tim Booth]

Dear Bio-Linux Users,

This is just to draw your attention to some of the packages in Bio-Linux
have been added or updated recently.  As ever, to ensure you have the
package installed:

        sudo apt-get update
        sudo apt-get-install bio-linux-packagename
        (replacing packagename with the app you want - all lowercase)

* catchall - This is a new program for analyzing data derived from
experiments or observations of species abundances or multiple recapture
counts.  See: http://www.northeastern.edu/catchall

        NB: If you install this package, to run the program you simply
        need to type "catchall <args ...>", not "mono CatchAllcmdL.exe
        <args ...>" as stated in the official manual.
        
* mothur has now been updated to v1.22.2.  If the new bio-linux-catchall
package is installed, the catchall() feature in Mothur should work as
advertised.

* mira is now updated to 3.4.0 with support for assembly of Ion Torrent
reads.

* artemis has been updated to the latest release 13.2.0.  This update
also includes the latest ACT

Any bug reports to the helpdesk address please: helpdesk at nebc.nerc.ac.uk

Cheers,

TIM
