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

In Ubuntu examl is provided by examl package.

examl is:

Exascale Maximum Likelihood (ExaML) is a code for phylogenetic inference using MPI. This code implements the popular RAxML search algorithm for maximum likelihood based inference of phylogenetic trees.

ExaML is a strapped-down light-weight version of RAxML for phylogenetic inference on huge datasets. It can only execute some very basic functions and is intended for computer-savvy users that can write little perl-scripts and have experience using queue submission scripts for clusters. ExaML only implements the CAT and GAMMA models of rate heterogeneity for binary, DNA, and protein data.

ExaML uses a radically new MPI parallelization approach that yields improved parallel efficiency, in particular on partitioned multi-gene or whole-genome datasets. It also implements a new load balancing algorithm that yields better parallel efficiency.

It is up to 4 times faster than its predecessor RAxML-Light and scales to a larger number of processors.

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

sudo apt-get -y install examl

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

You can also use apt command to install examl.

sudo apt -y install examl

Or if you have aptitude installed you can use the following command.

sudo aptitude install examl
