It builds for me (and on the Debian autobuilders) so the build seems OK.
I admit I do not really understand what you mean by "still present on my
computer". In any case the revision you prepared is uploaded - thanks for
this.

Well, as far as I understood upstream the reason for their self made
build system is the support of different architectures (no idea why they
can not accomplish this task with automake or cmake).
The error I spotted in the build log[3
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libncbi-vdb.so: undefined reference to `uint64_msbit'
might be connected to libncbi-vdb - possibly some incompatibility issue
there? You might like to ask upstream but I admit I've spent so many
hours into this software compared to other that my motivation to deal
with this issue is not going beyond restricting it just to amd64 (which
seems to be the only *tested* platform).

That's passing now! Very cool. I'm really happy about this.
Thanks for your work on this as always
Andreas.
