Hi, I intend to package the latest version of Ugene for Debian. Since I'm always verifying whether the license of all third party components would permit distribution in main (=official) Debian since it is currently only in non-free and thus not part of the official Debian distribution. It would help if you could just provide the version 3.696 of phylip[1] which has no real code changes but basically switched to BSD-2-clause license. This would bring us one step nearer to provide a free Ugene inside Debian.
Well, and BTW, it would help even more if you would try to stop including code copies of several other projects - but we discussed this before. :-) Kind regards Andreas. [1] http://evolution.gs.washington.edu/phylip/download/ -- http://fam-tille.de
