I'll have a look into it. Guess you now know why I said it's not trivial to package! ;) Could you send my a Debdiff so I can see what you did exactly? I did not see any changes in the SVN. (And non-functional changes should not be commited in the first place, IMHO.) > As I have no idea of what propka is... PROPKA is a tool that calculates pKa, the negative log of a dissociation constant. It's measure for the the strength of an acid or base. PROPKA is a seperate software tool but distributed in the PDB2PQR software package. It's different from an embedded code copy, as this is the only channel of publication (meaning there is no download site to get PROPKA, although it is standalone). There was a new upstream release lately, so this might cause things to break. > Additional stuff is needed as they had a web server, /var/www > content should be moved, but this can be done easilly with a new > directive in install file I did not ship the web server previously (as documented in the package) and I do not want to do that in the future. In order to get a working web service the tool needs heavy patching and I do not see any value in that. There are a lot of PDB2PQR servers around the web which usually run on some SVN checkout, so that bugs are fixed soon. Given the time that's needed to get a working web server in the Debian package and the very low number of people who will run that, I think this time can be better spent elsewhere. If you want to do that, though, I'm not stopping you. Best regards, Manuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
