[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#815176: staden: Gap4 contig editor does not show sequences

[Kerstin Hoef-Emden]

Hi to all,

at what time intervals syncing takes place? I just tried pregap for the 
fix of the missing links and it did not yet work.

I tested uncommenting the line in the tcl-script of the contig editor 
with a version downloaded from sourceforge and installed with stow and 
the fix worked (I use xfce4).

Best wishes,

Kerstin
