Hi Martin and Anke, (I'm writing by wearing my Debian maintainer hut but we can talk about this also via internal phone - I just want to get Filippo involved since he might have a good overview abou this topic.)
I have created Debian packaging code for pipasic[1] which creates a working Debian package - at least if you have installed either InsPecT or Tide as my experiment with your example data seems to show. Infortunately your README.txt does not provide a link how to obtain these programs. I did some research and hope you can confirm that at least one of them would be sufficient to use pipasic sensibly. InsPecT ------- I found it mentioned on this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mass_spectrometry_software where it is known that the link is dead. This page http://www.ms-utils.org/wiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SoftwareList lists it as well (the link is really dead) Do you know any download location - preferably for the source code if available at all? It seems to be a bit suspicious to me that you rely on a program that seems to be a bit hidden from sight. Tide ---- I found http://sourceforge.net/projects/cruxtoolkit/ and it seems Tide source code could be fetched from SVN directly at http://sourceforge.net/p/cruxtoolkit/code/HEAD/tree/tide/ Could you confirm that the code in SVN would work with pipasic? Kind regards and greetings from Wernigerode Andreas. [1] https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/pipasic.git -- http://fam-tille.de
