EMBOSS is "The European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite".
EMBOSS is a free Open Source software analysis package specially
developed for the needs of the molecular biology (e.g. EMBnet) user
community. The software automatically copes with data in a variety of
formats and even allows transparent retrieval of sequence data from
the web. Also, as extensive libraries are provided with the package,
it is a platform to allow other scientists to develop and release
software in true open source spirit. EMBOSS also integrates a range of
currently available packages and tools for sequence analysis into a
seamless whole. EMBOSS breaks the historical trend towards commercial
software packages.

If you want to use eprimer3 and multiple sequence alignment programs
like emma, you should install primer3 and clustalw, both of which are
available at SlackBuilds.org.
