Hi Carlos,

it would be very exiting to see Galaxy packaged in Debian.

Please go ahead with Depends: bowtie.

I see that you also added Recommends: cufflinks.  This is not possible as
cufflinks is very unfortunately non-free.  Also, if nothing in the tophat
package calls programs from the cufflinks package, the relationship would
rather be that tophat Enhances: cufflinks and cufflinks Depends: tophat.

Have a nice day,
