You aren’t kidding. Especially if it’s some bioinformatics software that is just hanging out there on GitHub older than a year…

- acomjean 1y agoThey’re weren’t that many that weren’t pre compiled for Linux in the c++ world. Python is bad, but others have issues too. C/C++ often had to compile used “make” which I’ll admit to being better at the conda/pip. I suspect this is because the c/c++ code was developed by people with a more comp Sci background. Configure/make/make install..I remember compiling this one. https://mafft.cbrc.jp/alignment/software/source.html https://mafft.cbrc.jp/alignment/software/source.html If the software made it biogrids life was easier https://biogrids.org/ https://biogrids.org/ But a lot of the languages had their own quirks and challenges (Perl cpan, Java…). Containerization kinda helps.
