Hi Andreas, I spoke too soon on ChimeraSlayer. I've just run the test scripts provided with QIIME and it is crashing because at some point it tries to write to the /usr/share/microbiomeutil-data/RESOURCES directory.
It looks like this can be fixed by pre-computing some indices, by running these two commands as root: formatdb -p F -i /usr/share/microbiomeutil-data/RESOURCES/rRNA16S.gold.fasta 2>/dev/null cdbfasta -C /usr/share/microbiomeutil-data/RESOURCES/rRNA16S.gold.NAST_ALIGNED.fasta So I guess these commands need to be added to postinst, with a corresponding cleanup in postrm. Do you know where I can find an example/template for doing this properly/robustly? This also hilights that chimeraslayer needs to declare a direct dependency on the blast2 package.
