"Should" have is correct. See #820308. There is no real chance that we
get the dependencies fulfilled. Python-burrito-fillings is the stumbling
stone here since it depends from python-skbio which does not exist any more
since upstream moved on and provides only Python3.
May be the situation is better with Qiime2.

A colleague of main keeps on needing usearch. Its a dependency for a
program I forgot and can check soonest on Monday. If I remember
correctly vsearch can only deal with DNA but not with proteins while
usearch can do both. I'm in big favour of nagging upstream about
freeing their code and I'd heavily welcome if anybody would join me in
this attempt. There is no real excuse for any user of this list not
to do this since who is able to read and write e-mails can do this.
Kind regards
Andreas.
