"brew install brewsci/bio/abyss" doesn't work - no formula

I try to install this tool with linuxbrew and I get the following error:

./brew install brewsci/bio/abyss
Error: No available formula with the name "brewsci/bio/abyss" 
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)...
Warning: brewsci/bio is shallow clone. To get complete history run:
  git -C "$(brew --repo brewsci/bio)" fetch --unshallow

Error: No previously deleted formula found.
==> Searching for similarly named formulae...
==> Searching local taps...
Error: No similarly named formulae found.

It looks like the formula is not under brewsci/bio/abys. Can you please help?

Thanks, Julia

https://linuxbrew.bintray.com/bottles-science/ has abyss.

Try brew search abyss. It should be available under local taps. If it is available under local taps, try brew install abyss. If it is not listed, then try: brew install brewsci/bio/FORMULA. It would take some time. Then search for abyss. If it is listed (under local tap), install it.

The formula for ABySS is not in the brewsci/bio tap, but in the core tap.

brew install abyss
