[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#685149: missing source for included Windows libraries

[Andreas Tille]

Hi Ansgar,

thanks for checking.  When looking into the packaging I noticed that
this package can easily be moved from contrib to main because the only
dependency (Recommends: clustalw) now can be fullfilled in main Debian.
I would just set

   Recommends: clustalw (>= 2.1+lgpl)

Would you (with your ftpmaster hat on) and the release team accept this
move once the new source package has to be builded anyway?

Kind regards

        Andreas.
