We do often find tarballs containing convenience copies of certain libraries. In most cases it is possible to use a configuration option to use this copy or a system library. Debian currently has version 4.0+r233 (package libtbb-dev). If this is the same / a compatible version as you intend to include there should be no problems to expect. In the specific case of flexbar I'm lacking enough knowledge for cmake build system. I would consider the following options (prefered in this ranking): 1. Let cmake check whether libtbb is installed on the system and use this if yes 2. Provide a switch that enables forcing the usage of libtbb installed on the system 3. Patch CMakeLists.txt to ignore the convenience copy and take the system libtbb Options 1. and 2. enable us the packaging without applying extra patches which would simplify things on our side but might possibly put some extra work on your shoulders (which you would not have otherwise when ignoring our packaging attempt.) As I said I have no cmake experience and can not tell how much work this might be but in any case I could ask on some other list (debian-mentors) for the changes that might be needed. So if you would be willing to distribute flexbar source implementing 1. or 2. I could try to work out a patch that does exactly this. If you think 3. should be the way to go this is a fallback option for us. > Thank you a lot for the help!

Re: Flexbar source code?
Hi Andreas, ok, the plan sounds reasonable. Besides these issues, I consider to include the tbb lib in the source tarball to make it easy for those who download it for compilation. As far as I understood the tbb could be dropped by the patch for packaging based on tarball, right? Or would this complicate the packaging process or be against conventions?

Hi Johannes, thanks again for your very helpful clarification. After reading this I think it might be the best idea if we try to package flexbar as it is (including seqan copy) for the experimental branch in Debian which helps Toni for the moment and once there might be some new seqan library release we will build flexbar using this new release and move it to main Debian.

Re: Flexbar source code?
Hi Andreas, it is completely clear to me that one should use as many packaged libraries as possible. I'm simply not sure if it works with the older SeqAn package apart from modifications. I would have to test this first, and for reasons of consistency I would then go back to this release also on sourceforge. Since I know that a lot changes were introduced in the recent year, especially in the align module and the argument parser, this could cause problems and I also prefer to rely on the recent implementations. Therefore, I propose to wait for the next SeqAn package release. I will then use it also for the Flexbar version on sourceforge and will try to come along without modifications. Since I applied only very slight modifications, I am optimistic that it works out and I will discuss it with SeqAn developers.

Re: Re: Flexbar source code?
Hi Andreas, Tony asked me to join discussion on Flexbar packaging. I'm not sure if the stable SeqAn 1.3.1 package release misses functionality that I rely on, or if the behaviour of functions changed even if it compiles with this release. For example the new ArgumentParser has been added rather recently and I would not be surprised if its functionality changed in the time between the SeqAn package release and the revision that I incorporated. However, I think the question is not only if it compiles somehow using this package. It should be exacly the same behaviour for one version of Flexbar. This isn't clear if the seqan sources differ in version, not to talk about slight modifications I made. Thank you for the interest to include Flexbar!

OK, lets see how things evolve regarding the seqan library. BTW, I will consider changing the packaging of seqan anyway because it does not fit the usual packaging scheme of libraries (but that's post Wheezy release work.)

Upstream can post in public to the list (his mail address will be uncovered to spammers thought) without subscribing and we can CC him. Hi, Andreas. I was in contact with Johannes Röhr, one of the the upstream authors, before suggesting that we package "Flexbar" for Debian-Med. My initial contact with you about "Flexbar" was off-list and, as you suggested, I moved our conversation about it onto the Debian-Med list. I volunteered to do the packaging because Johannes is too busy. It seems strange to me that you expect an upstream author to take part in online discussions when they are not the package maintainer, but I'll ask Johannes if he will join in the discussion about "Flexbar" here. For the tarball itself I have two remarks: 1. It would be a good idea to include a file COPYING containing the license statement. 2. A really large part of the source tarball is a convenience copy of the seqan library which is also packages in seqan-dev package. Usually we try strongly to build packages against Debian packaged libraries and thus I would be very happy if we could drop the seqan code (by at the same time tweaking src/CMakeLists.txt to regard the Debian packaged seqan.) Unfortunately the included copy has some indifferent state - it is way younger than the latest official seqan release (1.3.1) which is packaged. So the question remains whether flexbar will really build with Debian's seqan package. It is the duty of the Debian maintainer of flexbar to find this out (either by testing himself or by asking upstream.) I've discussed this with Johannes already off-list, and I was able to compile his source release unmodified on Bio-Linux 7/Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. apt-cache policy seqan-dev seqan-dev: Installed: 1.3.1-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 1.3.1-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 1.3.1-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/nebc/bio-linux/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.3-1ubuntu2 0 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe amd64 Packages If Johannes is willing to join in the discussion, I will let him continue.

I gave flexbar a very quick look and noticed, that there is no source tarball at ist download page https://sourceforge.net/projects/flexbar/files/2.31/ Could you please contact the authors / those who asked you for the packaging to care for a versioned source code tarball besides their binary download files. (And yes, we could checkout from SVN but it is better to avoid this to safe us from extra hassle.) This would be a precondition for our packaging work and we should make sure that we will be able to start smoothly without spending time into things like this.
