tigr-glimmer for Debian ----------------------- The glimmer software of the TIGR institute was renamed to tigr-glimmer because of a name conflict with the GNOME library. The package works for me, most efforts went into the reformatting of the readme files for the man pages, feedback is welcome. The upstream authors are very supportive of this debian package for their software and I thank them for this. In version 2.13-1, the binaries and man pages all have a prefix "tigr-" to avoid conflicts with other programs, with extract in particular. This was changed in the current packaging of version 3.x in favour of putting the executables under /usr/lib/tigr-glimmer. A wrapper is provided that enables to call the binaries via tigr-glimmer (see man tigr-glimmer). Alternatively you might add this directory to your search PATH to call the binaries directly. -- Steffen Moeller , Thu, 10 Nov 2004 12:33:46 +0100
