If you are in any way interested in software packaging and deployment for bioinformatics you can meet like-minded people on the Open Bioinformatics Foundation (OBF) bio-packaging mailing list at

   http://lists.open-bio.org/mailman/listinfo/bio-packaging

Here we discuss issues around packaging and deploying software: anything that concerns dependencies, multiple version support and/or reproducibility. The general idea is to come up with solutions we can share across environments and construct (shared) pipelines out of them.

Generic packaging systems

GNU Guix

GNU guix is a package manager for the Gnu/Linux operating system. Bioinformatics packages are constructed here.

Language based packaging systems

Ruby biogems

Python packages

Perl CPAN

R CRAN

Javascript

Linux distributions and VMs

Debian BioMed

CloudBiolinux

Galaxy

Docker
