Hi Tony,

Its a pleasure for me to look at this once you fixed

    https://github.com/tony-travis/PIQUE/issues/3

That was quick. :-)

Hi, Andreas.

I've also pushed some changes for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS that were pending, and I tested installation using Michael Maruter's R 3.5 PPA instead of using the 3.4 versions in the Ubuntu repos, because the r-cran packages that I want are supported for R 3.5 in Ubuntu 'bionic' and thinking of the future, I want to move everything to R 3.5 for Bio-Linux...

Here are my next questions:

   1. Could you please join me in bothering the emmax author again?
      That's definitely a prerequisite for PIQUE packaging.

Yes, of course, but my work-around is just to download it.

   2. Is there any description of PIQUE that could be used as long
      description for the package.  I've checked doc/pique_manual.odt
      but despite its filename it says it is the ParSNP manual
      (btw, parsnp is packaged) and doc/pique_tutorial.odt does
      also not contain anything that would enlighten me about PIQUE
      at first sight.
      Feel free to simply replace the FIXME in
       https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/pique/blob/master/debian/control

Yes, I'll sort that out: We called it "ParSNP" at first, but I subsequently discovered that someone has already used that name!

   3. I do not see any need to install the files in etc/profile.d or
      am I missing something?

That's only there because, at present, PIQUE is installed in:

  /usr/local/pique

If it's packaged and installed using "apt" they are not needed.

Thanks for packaging PIQUE,

  Tony.
