I admit *personally* I lost my motivation to ask for whitelisting. If I
tried last time (several years ago - so this might have changed) it was
a longish process and I decided not to spent time in non-free software
but rather spent this time in the process of freeing this software. As
far as I see the chances for Ugene might be not that bad but the package
itself needs more work to replace code copies of just packaged software.
Another similar candidate (even if no autobuild is needed since it is
Java) would be igv. Both would be really nice to have in main Debian.
BTW, I'm not convinced that the less powerful architectures will be
happy about building ugene ...
Kind regards
Andreas.
