Request for sponsoring: eagle
Hi,
Could someone review and sponsor this new package [1] ?
Package name: bio-eagle
URL: https://data.broadinstitute.org/alkesgroup/Eagle/
License: GPL3+
Description: Haplotype phasing within a genotyped cohort or using a
phased reference panel
Eagle estimates haplotype phase either within a genotyped cohort or using a
phased reference panel. The basic idea of the Eagle1 algorithm is to harness
identity-by-descent among distant relatives—which is pervasive at very large
sample sizes but rare among smaller numbers of samples—to rapidly call phase
using a fast scoring approach. In contrast, the Eagle2 algorithm analyzes a
full probabilistic model similar to the diploid Li-Stephens model used by
previous HMM-based methods.
The original name of this software is "eagle" but since there is
already a "eagle" package [2] (removed since few time but it will
probably be re-uploaded in a near futur) in Debian, I preferred (and
according to upstream) to rename the source and binary to bio-eagle.
I have used the same mechanism that for the plink package to permit to
use eagle with its original name. So, we have:
- the binary: usr/lib/debian-med/bin/eagle
- a link to this binary: usr/bin/bio-eagle
Thank you.
Best regards,
Dylan
