randfold - problem with installation

Question

[dentepre]

Hi,

I'm trying to install randfold from source, however there is still an error.

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsquid collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make: * [randfold] Error 1

What should I do?

The error says that LD-linker is not able to find the respective librarary. What was your commandline for installing the program? Did you check that all the dependencies are installed?

Save yourself some time and nerves: install bioconda

Then type conda install randfold
