                    I am trying to analyze some Primers with R but it seems openPrimeR can't find MELTING even though it is installed. Am I missing something obvious?
library(openPrimeR)
There are missing/non-functioning external tools.
To use the full potential of openPrimeR, please make sure
that the required versions of the speciied tools are
                installed and that they are functional:
o MELTING (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/biomodels/tools/melting/)
The number of cores for was set to '2' by 'parallel_setup()'.

Newest version of MELTING is installed and executables are in PATH
(base) ngs-benedikt@ngsbenedikt-desktop:~$ melting -V
 This MELTING program is the version 5.2.0.
Thanks!

openPrimeR requires and checks for
melting-batchrather thanmelting. Could you verify whether that's in your PATH as well?
