ThreadText: # How to install genometools with anaconda?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2019-01-24)
  
  I tied to install genometools with anaconda:
  
  ```
  conda install -c bioconda genometools
  
  ```
  
  Though, after running that successfully the command `gt` is not available in my conda environment.

  While conda tells me the program is installed. Are there multiple packages called genometools? What is the difference and can I install the package providing `gt` with anaconda at all? There is also a package called `genometools-genometools`, but it only has two downloads. So, I am not sure that is what I need.

  `genometools-genometools` seem to be the current version. By installing the `genometools` package I received the same error like you. I guess it's because the binary isn't copy to `bin` during installation.
  
  `genometools-genometools` seems to work fine. And it has `2k` (2000) and not `2` :)

  genometools-genometools worked for me, while 2 other options (genometools and -c leylabmpi genometools) did not.
