If it does the same as the phylip package, then copy the description of the phylip package, and only add at the end of the description that this is an "EMBOSS conversion". Then there is the question what an EMBOSS conversion entails. Why would one want to use embassy-phylip instead of phylip? The only difference you describe is that there is an extra "f" in the filename. If the differences between embassy-phylip and phylip are small, then you should suggest both upstreams to work together. -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <guus@debian.org>
