Hi, Steffen. Yes, I would be happy to do that. I'm now only doing minimal maintenance work on Bio-Linux 8, based on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty) while I start work on Bio-Linux 9, based on Ubuntu-MATE 18.04 LTS (Bionic). I've got the 18.04 Ubuntu-MATE beta .iso and I've started work remastering it for Bio-Linux using "customizer": > https://github.com/kamilion/customizer I plan to base Bio-Linux 9 on Debian-Med + Bioconda and would like to start adding Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic) versions of Debian-Med packages to the Debian-Med PPA if nobody objects. I also want to drop ALL the 'bad' NEBC packages (i.e. the binary-only packages that Bela and Tim used initially to migrate from Debian testing (Sarge) to Ubuntu 6.06 LTS. I've listened to Andreas: I intend to create a "bio-linux-desktop" meta-package modelled on the Debian-Med/Bio* tasks that are now being updated to include some 'missing' packages that were only in Bio-Linux. Thanks again to all in the Debian-Med team for your help and support, Tony. -- Minke Informatics Limited, Registered in Scotland - Company No. SC419028 Registered Office: 3 Donview, Bridge of Alford, AB33 8QJ, Scotland (UK) tel. +44(0)19755 63548 http://minke-informatics.co.uk mob. +44(0)7985 078324 mailto:[email protected]
