How To Fix tree-ppuzzle: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu tree-ppuzzle is provided by tree-ppuzzle package.

tree-ppuzzle is:

TREE-PUZZLE (the new name for PUZZLE) is an interactive console program that implements a fast tree search algorithm, quartet puzzling, that allows analysis of large data sets and automatically assigns estimations of support to each internal branch. TREE-PUZZLE also computes pairwise maximum likelihood distances as well as branch lengths for user specified trees. Branch lengths can also be calculated under the clock-assumption. In addition, TREE-PUZZLE offers a novel method, likelihood mapping, to investigate the support of a hypothesized internal branch without computing an overall tree and to visualize the phylogenetic content of a sequence alignment.

This is the parallelized version of tree-puzzle.

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

sudo apt-get -y install tree-ppuzzle

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

You can also use apt command to install tree-ppuzzle.

sudo apt -y install tree-ppuzzle
