Re: Packging jModelTest for Debian and versioning



Hi Andreas,

I added a new tagged revision after removing the dependency on ReadSeq. I also fixed the license in
several files where it was missing, and I removed the PhyML binaries from the repository. I am not
sure how you deal with that dependency, which is present also in ProtTest, but let me know if I
should do something about it. I replaced the binaries with a README file in
src/main/resources/exe/phyml that explains how to place the PhyML binary in the distribution.

Best,
Diego.
