[Slackbuilds-users] Slackware cited (again) in a scientific publication

[Petar Petrov]

dear All,

I am happy to let you know that Slackware was cited in the latest
paper from our group, published in the International Journal of
Molecular Sciences:

https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/23/6/3351

The paper describes a computational pipeline for the prediction of
inter-protein coevolution. In the center of the pipeline is program
CAPS, the static version of which you still have at SBo. Many of the
programs used are still present there, in fact. The showstopper for me
was Guidance, which required bioPerl, which in turn had a nightmarish
number of perl modules dependencies. This is when I had to change my
system and move away from Slackware (along with other reasons).
Slackware is credited in section 5. Materials and Methods -> 5.1.
Availability and Required Software.

I am very grateful for the help I have received from you as a
community through the years. Special thanks go to Urchlay, who
explained to me how to specify custom libs path at compile time.

kind regards,

Petar
