But if you are interested in the details with step-by-step instructions, the following information will be helpful.

What is stops and How to Install It?

First things first, you will need access to a server or computer running Fedora 34. This guide was written specifically with a server running Fedora 34 in mind, although it should also work on older, supported versions of the operating system.

Install stops on Fedora 34 using yum

Because stops is available in Fedora 34’s default repositories, it is possible to install it from these repositories using the yum packaging system.

To begin, update local packages database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh

Now can install stops package on your server/computer by running the following command:

sudo yum -y install staden

How to upgrade (update) a single package stops using yum?

To update all the packages available on the system:

yum update

If you want to update a specific package like stops in this example you should use the following command:

dnf update staden

How To remove stops from Fedora 34

To uninstall only the stops package you can execute the following command:

sudo dnf remove staden

Extra info and code examples

Staden is a fully developed set of DNA sequence assembly (Gap4 and Gap5), editing and analysis tools (Spin). Gap4 performs sequence assembly, contig ordering based on read pair data, contig joining based on sequence comparisons, assembly checking, repeat searching, experiment suggestion, read pair analysis and contig editing. It has graphical views of contigs, templates, readings and traces which all scroll in register. Contig editor searches and experiment suggestion routines use confidence values to calculate the confidence of the consensus sequence and hence identify only places requiring visual trace inspection or extra data. The result is extremely rapid finishing and a consensus of known accuracy. Pregap4 provides a graphical user interface to set up the processing required to prepare trace data for assembly or analysis, and automates these processes. Trev is a rapid and flexible viewer and editor for ABI, ALF, SCF and ZTR trace files. Prefinish analyses partially completed sequence assemblies and suggests the most efficient set of experiments to help finish the project. Tracediff and hetscan automatically locate mutations by comparing trace data against reference traces. They annotate the mutations found ready for viewing in gap4. Spin analyses nucleotide sequences to find genes, restriction sites, motifs, etc. It can perform translations, find open reading frames, count codons, etc. Many results are presented graphically and a sliding sequence window is linked to the graphics cursor. Spin also compares pairs of sequences in many ways. It has very rapid dot matrix analysis, global and local alignment algorithms, plus a sliding sequence window linked to the graphical plots. It can compare nucleic acid against nucleic acid, protein against protein, and protein against nucleic acid.

Conclusion

You now have a full guide on how to install stops using dnf and yum package managers. Also, we showed how to update manually as a single package and different ways to uninstall the stops from Fedora 34.
