[Bio-linux-list] Sickle biolinux 8

[Flavia Flaviani]

Hi everyone,

I have been asked to installed sickle on our biolinux machine and before
installing something that was already installed I've visited the biolinux
page http://environmentalomics.org/bio-linux-software-list/

Here I can see that sicke should be available directly in biolinux:


sickle 1.33 windowed adaptive trimming tool for FASTQ files using quality

When we type in the terminal sickle we get the message :"No command
'sickle' found, "



so I have tried:

$ dpkg -s sickle


and I got this message:

$dpkg-query: package 'sickle' is not installed and no information is
available
Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.


Would you advise me to install the program from github or is there
something I am missing for which I cannot access the preinstalled one?

thank you for the suggestions

Regards

Flavia
