Orthomcl Has Problem

Question

[Narongrit]

I'm doing a project on Bioinformatics and found some problems about libraries that used to compile with OrthoMCL and it shows error "libm.so.2 not found".

My environments that are processing the project including FreeBSD 7.0 OS, OrthoMCL 1.4, Blast 2.2.13 and MCL x.02-063.

Do you can solve this problem?

OrthoMCL is written in Perl and does require compilation. Also, why are you using version 1.4? That version is no longer supported. If you are having trouble compiling MCL then you may want to rephrase your question and provide more information or ask the MCL mailing list.

OrthoMCL does NOT require compilation. I wish you could edit posts, sorry about that.

Is it limb.so.2 or libm.so.2? I think this problem is related to libraries and operating system. I just google it and found this blog which describes the problem and solution. It says

libm.so.2 is actually the Standard C math library. (A new .2 version had to be added when adding C99 support in Solaris 10 since it was incompatible with some of the existing functions in libm.so.1.)
