Hi Steffen, Actually, we had a discussion on -devel last year, and they do not use our debian-med packages :( I think that they let users compile analysis tools by themselves so that they have a full control. Interestingly, this is also how it works here at RIKEN: we have servers (running CentOS 4, how awful...) on which there is almost nothing installed by default. In the end it makes sense because upgrading a software right in the middle of an analysis can be a bad idea, and each user has a different calendar. Since dpkg can install the programs in a non-root directory, a nice solution would be to bring this functionality into apt... Let's try to remember this for the Google SoC 2009!
