  • GSL - GNU Scientific Library (version-1.14; required for libBIOS, which is a general C library)
  • BlatSuite - BLAT and a collection of utility programs. These tools are utilized by VAT. Note: these executables must be part of the PATH.
  • GD library - The GD library is used to create an image for each gene model and its associated variants (version-2.0.35; required by VAT).
  • Tabix - Tabix is generic tool that indexes position-sorted files in tab-delimited formats to facilitate fast retrieval (download). These tools are utilized by VAT, Note: these executables must be part of the PATH

Installation

Installation of the external GSL and GD libraries

In order to install VAT two external libraries must be installed first. The libBIOS library depends on GSL, wheres VAT makes use of the GD library. Please follow the instructions provided by each package. The GSL library can be installed on most systems using the following commands (for details, please refer to the specific instructions at the GNU Scientific Library website):

$ cd /path/to/gslSource/
$ ./configure --prefix=`pwd`
$ make
$ make install

Similarly, the GD library can be installed on most systems with the following commands:

$ cd /path/to/gdSource/
$ ./configure --prefix=`pwd` --with-jpeg=/path/to/jpegLib/
$ make
$ make install

After they are installed, the first step to install VAT is the installation and configuration of libBIOS.

Installing and configuring libBIOS

 export CPPFLAGS="-I/path/to/gsl-1.14/include -I/path/to/libbios/include -I/path/to/gd-2.0.35/include"
 export LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/gsl-1.14/lib        -L/path/to/libbios/lib        -L/path/to/gd-2.0.35/lib"

Please refer to BIOS documentation for additional information.
