(new) ensembl-bin_57-6_amd64.deb extra non-free/utils
platform-specific files of Ensembl
The Ensembl website is mostly implemented in Perl. But just a few
bits do appear as binaries. Those are gathered in this package.
(new) ensembl-doc_57-6_all.deb extra non-free/doc
tutorials and othe documentation for Ensembl
Several Perl packages of Ensmebl offer a description of their API.
The compara package offers a tutorial. Also the Ensembl schema
is distributed with this documentation package.
(new) ensembl_57-6.debian.tar.gz extra non-free/science
(new) ensembl_57-6.dsc extra non-free/science
(new) ensembl_57-6_all.deb extra non-free/science
Installs a basic Ensembl 57 genome browser.
Ensembl is a joint project of the Sanger Center and the European
Bioinformatics Institute, an outstation of the European Molecular
Biology Laboratory, (EMBL-EBI) that are sharing a campus in Hinxton
near Cambridge, UK. It presents the sequence data for the
yet available complete genomes of many vertebrates and is helped
by many sister-projects to cover also plants, invertebrates
and bacteria.
.
This package provides a basic installation of Ensembl. It comprises
a full copy of the public Ensembl website, minus Blast and SSAHA,
and minus BioMart. It uses UniSearch instead of the engine used on the
public site for searching by keyword. It connects directly to the public
databases hosted by the EBI/Sanger.
.
This is meant as an easy way to get a basic Ensembl installation
working on Debian. It can then be customised to local requirements.
.
Note that Ensembl has two odd dependencies: bioperl1.2.3 and
libparallel-useragent-perl. Those are not required for routine
browsing, but the bioperl1.2.3 library performs the parsing of BLAST
outputs. Version 1.2.3 is in conflict with any other existing bioperl
installation and force you to effectively downgrade.
.
libwww-perl5.808 will conflict with the latest libwww-perl installation
and thus force a downgrade to 5.808, which will disable many other tools
on your system. Therefore it is advisable NOT to install this package
in parallel with any other software, and/or use a virtual machine or
dedicated machine.
.
We will work to try and remove these dependencies and allow Ensembl
to run fully on an up-do-date machine.
.
WARNING: Requires internet connection both to install and to run, as it
connects to the Sanger/EBI database servers during both installation
and at runtime.
(new) ensembl_57.orig.tar.gz extra non-free/science
(new) libensembl-compara-perl_57-6_all.deb extra non-free/perl
API for comparative genomics with Ensembl
The Ensembl project presents the sequence data for the yet
available complete genomes of many vertebrates and is helped by many
sister-projects to cover also plants, invertebrates and bacteria.
.
Any creationist please ignore this package, it will not make any sense
to you. The others will see how genes known in the human can be traced
back down to the fly (and some developmental genes have for instance
even been proven to be functional in the fly), or that many genes have
kept their chromosomal vicinity over millions of years and yet some
nucleotides as a block remain unchanged while many other neighbouring
positions have undergone many changes .... maybe those that have not
changed mean something?
(new) libensembl-core-perl_57-6_all.deb extra non-free/perl
core libraries of Ensembl API
The Ensembl project presents the sequence data for the yet
available complete genomes of many vertebrates and is helped by many
sister-projects to cover also plants, invertebrates and bacteria.
.
This package provides the core of its API, defining basic concepts
like biological sequences and that there may be databases from
which information can be retrieved. If you work with the Ensembl
API, then you need this package.
.
For complete confidence in the functionality of your Ensembl
installation, version 1.2.3 of BioPerl should be used. There are
reports that a current version would also be functional, but
upstream thinks differently here.
(new) libensembl-draw-perl_57-6_all.deb extra non-free/perl
Ensembl API for graphical representation of genomic properties
The Ensembl project presents the sequence data for the yet
available complete genomes of many vertebrates and is helped by many
sister-projects to cover also plants, invertebrates and bacteria.
.
This package provides a series of routines to help the web server present
items graphically.
(new) libensembl-external-perl_57-6_all.deb extra non-free/perl
API for integration of external data sources with Ensembl
The Ensembl project presents the sequence data for the yet
available complete genomes of many vertebrates and is helped by many
sister-projects to cover also plants, invertebrates and bacteria.
.
In a way, this package is the one that is most important for Debian,
since the integration of previous local data is (besides educational
purposes) probably the main motivation for the installation of these
pacakges.
(new) libensembl-functgenomics-perl_57-6_all.deb extra non-free/perl
API for functional genomics with Ensembl
The Ensembl project presents the sequence data for the yet
available complete genomes of many vertebrates and is helped by many
sister-projects to cover also plants, invertebrates and bacteria.
.
Functional genomics is about the investigation of what effects certain
parts of the genome have across tissues, states of those tissues (like
hypoxia, temperature changes, growth, ...) and of course in diseases.
(new) libensembl-variation-perl_57-6_all.deb extra non-free/perl
Ensembl API for investigation of inter-individual genomic differences
The Ensembl project presents the sequence data for the yet
available complete genomes of many vertebrates and is helped by many
sister-projects to cover also plants, invertebrates and bacteria.
.
We humans don't have all the same DNA. We have come to accept that
as part of the problem in organ transplantation. Key of genetic research
is to link variants in the DNA with phenotypes. Of those, insights
in the molecular pathophysiology are preferred results since those
are likely to help a better understanding of current treatments
and may generate ideas for novel drugs at best.
Changes: ensembl (57-6) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Yet another revised upload (Closes: #589818).
- removal of PDFs from source tree
- removal of .jar
* Another jar (of jalview) cannot be removed for the moment and
thus remains and renders the package non-free. But we are working
on getting Jalview into the distrbution. This cannot take too
much longer.
Override entries for your package:
Announcing to debian-devel-changes at lists.debian.org
Closing bugs: 589818
Your package contains new components which requires manual editing of
the override file. It is ok otherwise, so please be patient. New
packages are usually added to the override file about once a week.
You may have gotten the distribution wrong. You'll get warnings above
if files already exist in other distributions.
