Seqan 1.x (i.e. src:seqan) should be made to build correctly and not get booted from testing (and git should be reverted such that it contains only 1.x). Especially while the likes of bowtie & tophat rely upon them. (Though for smaller tools, providing patches to get them to build with seqan 2.x shouldn't be monumentally difficult and should be qulte upstream-able). Cheers, K --- Kevin Murray 0xA4B4EE6A
