I'd be very happy if somebody might have a look at biococoa.
Hi Andreas -- there are some serious issues with it.
GNUstep frameworks are packaged like classic shared libraries (that's
what they are, in fact), i.e. the biococoa source package should build
the binary packages libbiococoa2 and libbiococoa-dev. You don't need
the Replaces/Conflicts/Provides: biococoa.app -- sequenceconverter.app
would just build-depend on libbiococoa-dev and end up depending on
libbiococoa2. If you strongly care about upgrades,
sequenceconverter.app could build also a dummy transitional package
biococoa.app that depends on sequenceconverter.app (to be dropped
after Squeeze).
This is not exactly correct. sequenceconverter.app is essentially
BioCocoa V1 when the only functionality it had was to read/write
sequence files. For BioCocoa V2, much of the internals was re-
architected and it became a library, but in a cruel twist of fate, not
all of the capability got moved forward, so sequenceconverter.app
cannot utilize BioCocoa V2 to do its work, and thus really doesn't
depend upon it all. It will in the future once that capability has
been re-implemented.
cheers
