Sorry for the crossposts... -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Biodevelopers] fully rpm-ified NCBI toolkit available From: Joe Landman <landman at scalableinformatics.com> Date: Wed, January 21, 2004 6:39 am To: biocluster <bioclusters at bioinformatics.org>, biodevelopers <biodevelopers at bioinformatics.org> Cc: rocks <npaci-rocks-discussion at sdsc.edu>, Beowulf <beowulf at beowulf.org> Hi folks: I wanted to fix up my original packaging of the ncbi toolkit to make full use of the RPM mechanism for easier compilation and installation on clusters and other systems. I built a spec file for it and created a source RPM which you can pull down from http://downloads.scalableinformatics.com/ specifically http://downloads.scalableinformatics.com/downloads/NCBI-2.2.7-1.src.rpm There is nothing OS or target specific in this RPM. I will add in the Opteron patches and some other tweaks in short order, and get an updated source RPM. To build this RPM into a set of binary RPMs, do the following as root user: rpmbuild --rebuild NCBI-2.2.7-1.src.rpm If you want to build for a specific target processor, use the --target option, as in rpmbuild --rebuild --target i686 NCBI-2.2.7-1.src.rpm Please let me know if you find any problems. It has rebuilt fine on a number of machines thus far. I would like to see what happens on non-native RPM architectures (OS-X, and other Unices). -- Joseph Landman, Ph.D Scalable Informatics LLC email: landman at scalableinformatics.com web: http://scalableinformatics.com phone: +1 734 612 4615 _______________________________________________ Biodevelopers mailing list Biodevelopers at bioinformatics.org https://bioinformatics.org/mailman/listinfo/biodevelopers
