In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Betanin on MXLinux Latest. Betanin is an open-source library for Bayesian inference in phylogenetics. This library is developed by Sentriz and is available for download from their GitHub repository.
Before we proceed with the installation, ensure you have the following prerequisites:
Follow these steps to successfully install Betanin on your MXLinux Latest machine:
To install Betanin successfully, we need to ensure that all our system packages are updated. To do this, run the following command in your terminal.

git clone https://github.com/sentriz/betanin.git
cd betanin
make ; sudo make install
To verify the installation, we will run a simple test. Follow the steps below:
mkdir test_betanin ; cd test_betanin
(tree_file.nw)
A:1.2345,
B:2.3456,
C:3.4567;
betanin -i nexus -t newick -g no -p no -n 1000 -s 123 -f test -q tree_file.nw <<EOF

no
5.5 1.01
EOF
If the installation was successful, you should get a result output in the terminal.
In this tutorial, we guided you through the installation of Betanin on MXLinux Latest. You can now proceed to carry out Bayesian inference in phylogenetics. If you encounter any problems during the installation process, you can visit the Betanin GitHub page for further assistance.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
