Hi Guix, this patch adds a bioinformatics tool called "Ribotaper". It needs a somewhat older version of bedtools, because the output format produced by bedtools changed after version 2.18.0 (they don't seem to care about semantic versioning). This is why this patch not only adds a variable "ribotaper" but also "bedtools-for-ribotaper". Do you think I should rather name it "bedtools-2.18" and make it public so that users can install it?
This would be my preference, IIUC this is the current way we do this. Is there any difference from previous times we've had to include outdated packages?
Note that I just updated bedtools, although I imagine that won't help here. Thanks. ben
