How to download seqret method in Linux?

Question

[seabed0705]

I am a beginner. I got stuck during a Linux exercise. Here

cat AF086833.gb | seqret -filter -feature -osformat gff3> AF086833.gff

So I referenced http://emboss.sourceforge.net/download/.

I followed the instructions on the homepage link above to install seqret,

and there was an error in the compile phase.

The picture shows the directory status and the result of running "make".

The result of "make" is not over by repeating some specific sentences. So the next step does not proceed.

compile sentence : ./configure make

and i success "./configured" but not "make" what can i do...?

Use conda to install the emboss package. seqret is part of the emboss distribution:

Install conda as described in:

https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html

then install emboss from the bioconda channel:

conda install -c bioconda emboss

test the package works:

seqret -h

prints:

Read and write (return) sequences
Version: EMBOSS:6.6.0.0
