I'm very sorry for this. I don't know why my search didn't reveal that openms had never upgraded to SeqAn 2 or 3. > I tried removing the build-dependency as there did not appear to be > a corresponding runtime depedency, but that made configure fail. > > I then tried with libseqan3-dev but that also made configure fail > > I then tried with libseqan2-dev, in that case configure succeeded > but the build failed with There is no smooth upgrade path between major SeqAn versions, so I don't recommend trying that further. I suggest adding the parts of SeqAn needed to debian/ as a quick(er) fix. -- Michael R. Crusoe
