[Bio-linux-dev] bio-linux-galaxy or galaxy-server

[William Spooner]

Dear BL-ers,

If I look for galaxy packages on a fresh CloudBioLinux instance, I see;

$ aptitude search galaxy
p   bio-linux-galaxy-all  - A web-based analysis environment with third party dependencies                                
p   bio-linux-galaxy-core - A web-based analysis environment                                                              
p   bio-linux-galaxy-dependencies - Third party dependencies for Galaxy (a web-based analysis tool)                               
p   galaxy-server - A web-based analysis environment                                                              
p   galaxy-server-all - Galaxy server with all recommended tools                                                      
p   galaxy-server-test - Test and demo data for Galaxy server                                                          
p   openoffice.org-style-galaxy - office productivity suite -- Galaxy (Default) symbol style        

So galaxy seems to be packaged twice, once by bio-linux, and once elsewhere. Tim and Soon Gweon are the maintainers in bot cases. So - should I be using bio-linux-galaxy or galaxy-server?

Tim - I also have a debian service-compatible init.d startup script for galaxy if you're interested. Similar to the current /etc/init/galaxy.conf, but with greater functionality.

Best,

Will
