MuSiC installation on Mac, Module Genome error

I followed the guide here and I was able to get almost to the end of the installation.

At the point where I have to install the Genome module with

sudo `which cpanm` -n http://apt.genome.wustl.edu/ubuntu/pool/main/g/genome/genome_0.80.1-3.tar.gz

I get the following error (from the log.file):

This tells me that there is a problem because of the word "Pro" from my MacBook Pro....however, I'm not sure how to fix this, any suggestions?

I did try to use --force but it made no difference...

Those instructions were tested on various Linux distributions, never on a Mac. One of the many differences between Linux and Mac OSX is how OSX allows a user-friendly ComputerName like "MacBooks MacBook Pro" that can contains spaces, while a linux hostname cannot. It doesn't perfectly fit your error message, but give it a shot. Run the following to change your Mac's ComputerName and HostName, and try again:

sudo scutil --set HostName "macbookpro"
sudo scutil --set ComputerName "macbookpro"

Great! Glad to hear. And thanks for confirming Mac compatibility. :)

@Cyriac Kandoth I want to install genome-music followed your approach described Installation of the MuSiC suite on unsupported Linux distributions and almost finished. I met a problem when I install the Genome module with

sudo `which cpanm` -n http://apt.genome.wustl.edu/ubuntu/pool/main/g/genome/genome_0.80.1-3.tar.gz

The error is:

I want to install music on the Ubuntu 14.04. I don't know how to do.

Thanks
