Can't make Maq

[RockChalkJayhawk]

Hey all,

I have tried to install Maq-0.7.1 from the sourceforge website many times but I see a couple of problems. First I don't think it is configuring right. I keep getting a warning with my zlib.h. Then, it can't findgnu/stubs-64.h.

Any suggestions?

Here is the code:

This could be a number of issues relating to 64-bit computing (you are using a 64-bit processor right?).

Try updating your "libc6-dev" package (c library development package). Also try passing in the option "--disable-multilib" when you run "./configure". Could you tell us what OS and architecture you are using?

I am running Bio-Linux on AMD athlon X2 Dual-core QL-64. I tried to update my libc6-dev but when I did, it said I was trying to download the wrong architecture (I was trying the AMD download). Any ideas?

From this page it looks like Bio-Linux likes 32-bit packages only, but their website does not have amazing documentation so I could be wrong. Can you change distributions (I would recommend Ubuntu for a desktop and Cent OS for a server) and install the 64-bit versions?

Now it all makes sense! Thanks nilshomer. I will have to change my OS.
