libgtextutils installation problem for FASTX toolkit

[jazz]

I am trying to install libgtextutils for running the FASTX toolkit on my Ubuntu, but I am getting the following error after 'sudo make install' command

Can anyone help me in this, since this tool is crucial for running FASTX.

How did you install and run fastx toolkit in linux

Hi,

I am new to NGS data analysis.
Can you please tell me how you installed and run the fastx toolkit in linux.
I would greatly appreciate your help.

Thanks

The install instructions are on the download page: http://hannonlab.cshl.edu/fastx_toolkit/download.html

What OS are you using (or are planning to use)?

[nareshvasani]

I also follow same protocol for installation.
I am using linux 64.

After typing
make
message apperas like: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

After typing
sudo make install
message apperas like: make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.

Can you please explain what does this mean.

Thanks

[GenoMax]

If you downloaded a pre-compiled binary (e.g. from here http://hannonlab.cshl.edu/fastx_tool..._amd64.tar.bz2) then there is nothing more to do (except unzip the file, of course). The program is ready for use.

If you are new to unix then getting the pre-compiled binaries may be the best option.

Are you using Ubuntu?

[nareshvasani]

Thanks for your feedback.

Yes I am using Ubuntu and I downloaded same version.
I was just confused if i install it properly or not.
Is there any command line by which I can assure if the program is installled correctly or not?

Thanks... GenoMax

[GenoMax]

Once you "bunzip2" the file it should make a directory with the name "bin". The fastx toolkit executables will be in that directory. You can change to the bin directory and then try to run of of the files like this:

$ fastx_trimmer -h

That should produce some help output for the command.

In that case you are all set.

[nareshvasani]

Thanks a lot Genomax.
With your help I am satisfied that I have install program in correct manner.
I appreciate that.

By any chance do you know how to install trinity?

Best,
Naresh

Follow the directions on the trinity page (it is a "make" provided you have the dependencies).

There are a couple of threads that may help, if you run into problems:

Much Appreciated Genomax.

make commond means it helps to update files correct?

[GenoMax]

make commond means it helps to update files correct?

Make is a utility that automatically builds executable programs and libraries from source code by reading files called makefiles which specify how to derive the target program.
