[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#645487: ensembl: includes GPL code without source

[Steffen Möller]

Hello,

I would not bet on it. Most likely this needs some adjustments to the
Ensembl code since the Jar of Ensembl is considerably older than what is
now in Debian with a much smaller set of dependencies to additional jars.

Please leave it for after the Sprint.
