There is a file conflict between this and 'texlive-latexextra' on '/usr/bin/wordcount' which needs to be addressed.

emboss now puts its .h files in /usr/include/emboss/*. This should solve all conflicting headers, and libs work on my machine.

@mschu Please merge in previous commenter's fixes for this package. But this doesn't fully fix the problem.

Like two previous commentators, install failed because installation of /usr/bin/showdb conflicts with sqlite. IMO there really shouldn't be conflicts with official packages, especially when it's something as common as sqlite.

I fixed it by just installing /usr/bin/showdb under a different name. IMO it shouldn't be in `/opt`, because there will still be problems with conflicting binaries in $PATH, although @antony's suggestion is not bad.

hobbypunk,

I maintain EMBOSS and EMBASSY for Slackware at SlackBuilds.org and I uploaded their sources to SF here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/sboppetrov/files/EMBOSS/

The link you provided may not be active in the near future.

This currently conflicts with the widely used sqlite because of the presence of /usr/bin/showdb.

Because this package provides so many executables in /usr/bin, perhaps it would make sense to rename them as /usr/bin/emboss-*?

please update the link to:
http://www.student.oulu.fi/~ppetrov/source/EMBOSS-6.6.0/EMBOSS-6.6.0.tar.gz
the md5sum is the same ;)

Hey, there are 2 little problems with your PKGBUILD, the source is offline, here is one that works "http://science-annex.org/pub/emboss/" and you should switch from "/usr" to "/opt/emboss", without the showdb file conflicts with showdb from sqlite

The 6.5.7 package has moved to the old directory. The new one is located at this link:

ftp://emboss.open-bio.org/pub/EMBOSS/EMBOSS-6.6.0.tar.gz

I don't see why this should be out of date. Download fails, but the EMBOSS webpage still links the same version, so this is an upstream fault and not one of the package.
