Thanks.

So the last remaining questions are:

   1. Can we fix the pristine-tar branch properly (to exclude third_party)
      or would it possibly less work to recreate the Git repository (I
      personally would not mind about the history of the packaging and I
      also admit that I'm not keen on upstream history - so choosing the
      solution that creates less work is fine for me)
   2. Deal with the dangling symlink by rather using bamtools.links.

Kind regards

        Andreas.
