How To Install mosdepth-examples on Debian 12
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install mosdepth-examples on Debian 12.
What is mosdepth-examples
mosdepth-examples is:
Many small reads are produced by high-throughput “next generation” sequencing technologies. The final sequence is derived from how these reads are overlapping towards a consensus. The more reads are covering/confirming parts of a nucleotide seq, the higher the confidence is. Too many reads would be indicative of e.g. repeats in the genome.
mosdepth can output:
- per-base depth about 2x as fast samtools depth–about 25 minutes of CPU time for a 30X genome.
- mean per-window depth given a window size–as would be used for CNV calling.
- the mean per-region given a BED file of regions.
- a distribution of proportion of bases covered at or above a given threshold for each chromosome and genome-wide.
- quantized output that merges adjacent bases as long as they fall in the same coverage bins e.g. (10-20)
- threshold output to indicate how many bases in each region are covered at the given thresholds. when appropriate, the output files are bgzipped and indexed for ease of use.
This package contains a test data set as well as sample scripts running some test suite provided by Debian also as autopkgtest.
There are three methods to install mosdepth-examples on Debian 12. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.
Install mosdepth-examples Using apt-get
Update apt database with apt-get using the following command.
sudo apt-get update
After updating apt database, We can install mosdepth-examples using apt-get by running the following command:
sudo apt-get -y install mosdepth-examples
Install mosdepth-examples Using apt
Update apt database with apt using the following command.
sudo apt update
After updating apt database, We can install mosdepth-examples using apt by running the following command:
sudo apt -y install mosdepth-examples
Install mosdepth-examples Using aptitude
If you want to follow this method, you might need to install aptitude first since aptitude is usually not installed by default on Debian. Update apt database with aptitude using the following command.
sudo aptitude update
After updating apt database, We can install mosdepth-examples using aptitude by running the following command:
sudo aptitude -y install mosdepth-examples
