I think I've seen an ITP for chemeq or even .debs somewhere, not sure whether it is in the archive. 'babel' is not Free Software, however, the openbabel package is a mostly drop-in replacement. (same [not being Free Software] applied to other items on the list; I'd be cautious to just include them as-is, I guess the FreeBSD guys are just linking to upstream tarballs and provide build scripts, it might be up to the user to decide whether the licensing is appropriate for them)
Thanks for these hints.
xdrawchemThere is a Debian package of it and we just have to discuss, whether this is a target for med-bio or not.What is the scope of med-bio, anyway?
Well, I'm working in a medical institute where people working on gene and protein sequences. So programs which are dealing with this are per definition also interesting for medical stuff. Once I had kind of a flamish mail (in privat or at list - I do not remember) that I should leave out the biology stuff from Debain-Med and give room for Debian-Bio. My answer was: Start Debian-Bio first and I would leave this stuff out immediately. The situation did not changed until now (and there was no response that somebody would start a Debian-Bio project). So my intention is to support medical stuff with *all* things they need. The name of the project doesn't matter. Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
