How To Fix cuteSV: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu cuteSV is provided by cutesv package.

Long-read sequencing enables the comprehensive discovery of structural variations (SVs). However, it is still non-trivial to achieve high sensitivity and performance simultaneously due to the complex SV characteristics implied by noisy long reads.

cuteSV is a sensitive, fast and scalable long-read-based SV detection approach. cuteSV uses tailored methods to collect the signatures of various types of SVs and employs a clustering-and-refinement method to analyze the signatures to implement sensitive SV detection. Benchmarks on real Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) and Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) datasets demonstrate that cuteSV has better yields and scalability than state-of-the-art tools.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install cutesv

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install cutesv.
