text: user1075: I have installed hmmpress on my Mac OS X. It is here:
  which hmmpress
  /Users/user/anaconda/bin/hmmpress
  
  It is available in my root environment:
  hmmpress -h
  # hmmpress :: prepare an HMM database for faster hmmscan searches
  # HMMER 3.1b2 (February 2015); http://hmmer.org/

  # - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
  Usage: hmmpress [-options] <hmmfile>
  
  Options:
    -h : show brief help on version and usage
    -f : force: overwrite any previous pressed files
  
  I don't remember exactly how I installed it but I thought that I used conda because it is in the anaconda folder. However, conda search hmmpress returns no packages. I thought it could be part of the hmmer package. Indeed, the hmmer package exists in the bioconda channel. However, if I try conda uninstall hmmer, it says: 
  conda uninstall hmmer
  Solving environment: failed
  
  PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are missing from the target environment:
    - hmmer
  
  Does anyone know how I can remove hmmpress? I thought of rm -rf the /Users/user/anaconda/bin/hmmpress but it does not seem like a clean solution. There might be dependencies elsewhere that I could also get rid of.
  
  user1075: This time conda uninstall hmmer in the root environment did the job. The sequence of commands that led me there is shown below. Thanks Devon Ryan.
