We maintain several custom Homebrew taps as packages in our repository here for the convenience of our users on recent Mac OSX platforms:
- FLTKWithCairo: Tap Bottle Stats | Formula
- ViennaRNA: Tap Bottle Stats | Formula
- RNAStructViz: Tap Bottle Stats | Formula
To add our tap repository into your brew
search path, run the following command:
$ brew tap gtDMMB/homebrew-core
To install the existing packages from source (i.e., rebuild any binary packages locally) run the following command
$ brew install --build-from-source gtDMMB/core/<pkg-name>
where <pkg-name> is one of {fltkwithcairo,viennarna,rnastructviz}
.
Note that rebuilding from source can be a time consuming process depending on the speed of your Mac system.
Similarly, to install the pre-packaged binary bottle versions of our packages, run the following command:
$ brew install gtDMMB/core/<pkg-name>
If you run into any significant issues with our packages -- and not the brew
utility itself, consider posting a new issue to this repository for help resolving the issue with our local packages offered by the gtDMMB group.
The RNAStructViz application requires a build of the most recent FLTK 1.4.x library with Cairo support to run on the most recent Mac OSX Mojave. Since brew by policy does not allow non-stable, or development, branches of software to be integrated into their full formula base, we have created this tap for the convenience of our users.
To install our tap of FLTK 1.4.x with Cairo support from source, run the following commands in your Mac OSX terminal:
$ brew install --build-from-source gtDMMB/core/fltkwithcairo
