    Why don't you install the library either by using Ubuntu software center/method below?

    Code:
    $sudo apt-get install libgtextutils0
    Since you got the precompiled binaries for fastx-toolkit you should not need to install this separately.

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

        thanks

            Problem solved

            , thanks for your quick reply.
            This method doesn't work for me anyway. But I solve the problem just using the latest version of libgtextutils and fastx-toolkit. Hope this info helps.

                      If you installed libgtexutils using apt-get then why are you trying to compile them from source?

                        So, I thought, this error is due to the libgrtextutils make command error. coz it was not showing the proper installation.

                          Are you compiling the latest fastx toolkit source (0.0.14)? You may need to get the latest libgtextutils that are available on the download page: http://hannonlab.cshl.edu/fastx_toolkit/download.html

                            I am compiling on 0.0.13 version of fastx...with the libgtextutils 0.6 version. Now what should I do ?

                              If you are compiling from source then may as well try the latest version. What flavor of *nix are you using?

                              BTW: Looking at another post on the forum you appear to be already running fastx using the pre-compiled binaries. Any specific reason to continue with compilation from source?

                                Firstly I was facing the error as i discussed with you. In this forum I understood about the binaries files when I checked for bin folder was there...Then i tried to execute it from there.. But I failed to continue it. From the binaries its showing error..so i tried for compiling through source.
                                I didnt know about *nix.

                                  From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
                                  by SEQadmin2


                                  Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


                                  The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.

                                  Environmental Genomics in the Age of NGS: From Microbes to Conservation Strategies
                                  by SEQadmin2

                                  Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.


                                  Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...
