Packages

If for some reason none of the following binaries work, you can build Lambda from source. This will also result in executables optimized for your specific platform.

Upstream packages

We provide our official ("upstream") packages at the GitHub releases page:

https://github.com/seqan/lambda/releases

These are typically only available for Linux and macOS. Simply unpack the tarball and run the included binary.

Downstream packages

On the following operating systems, there are distribution packages of Lambda that you can install as the root user or ask your administrator to install:

branch	Distribution	package name	command to install
lambda1	Ubuntu, Debian, MINT, Devuan...	lambda-align	sudo apt install lambda-align
lambda2	Ubuntu, Debian, MINT, Devuan...	lambda-align2	sudo apt install lambda-align2
lambda3	Ubuntu, Debian, MINT, Devuan...	--	not yet available

Please check if the downstream version is up-to-date and use an upstream package instead if it is newer!
