[Debian-med-packaging] What is the most recent code of libgenome and where can it be downloaded

[Aaron Darling]

Hi Andreas, yes, of course I remember our interactions. You have been quite helpful over the years in bringing bioinformatics software to debian!

The libgenome sourceforge project itself is defunct. The latest code currently  lives at:
https://sourceforge.net/p/mauve/code/HEAD/tree/libGenome/trunk/

which itself is quite stale, but unfortunately I have not been able to free up time from my day job to do much software maintenance work. In any case, I think that's the version you're looking for.

Hi Aaron,

I hope you remember past conversations about mauve-aligner and its
underlying libraries which I've packaged for Debian.

I'm about to update several packages of Debian Med team.  When doing so
I'm trying to verify whether there are more recent upstream releases.
In the case of libGenome I became unsure where to find the latest code.
While the download points to sourceforge files[1] this is empty.  I checked
CVS on Sourceforge which has the latest revision

    1.18         (koadman  13-Feb-05)

The configure.in file mentiones

   AC_INIT(libGenome, 0.5.3)

This revision is three years older than the files which are in the
current Debian upstream tarball and there configure.ac claims version
1.3.1.  In short:  The only code I can find is in CVS but this is
outdated.  Can you point be to the most recent code of libGenome - may
be just put back the old 1.3.1 archive at some public place.

Kind regards

      Andreas.
