seqan-needle for Debian
-----------------------

Name conflict between emboss and seqan-needle
=============================================

Needle is a very generic name and the binary /usr/bin/needle is already
taken in the package emboss.  So we need to rename the
"needle" binary due to this conflict and in Debian you can find the
binary under

     /usr/bin/seqan-needle

In case the original name "needle" is used in some of your scripts and
you want to use this original name just do the following:  Set the PATH
variable like

  export PATH=/usr/lib/debian-med/bin:$PATH

since the original name is kept inside the Debian Med name space.

If a user creates a file

    ${HOME}/.blends

with the content

# Add Blend names here which should prepend its bin dir to PATH
debian-med

the med-config package automatically adds this PATH to the users
environment (when using bash).
