ncbi-tools6 (6.1.20170106+dfsg1-4) unstable; urgency=medium

    As of version 6.1.20170106+dfsg1-1 (and corresponding -0+deb* stable
    updates), Debian no longer distributes the full UniVec database
    because it contains some non-free sequences.  (Invitrogen Corporation
    holds copyright on them and requires a license for commercial use.)

    The UniVec_Core database remains available for explicit use, for
    instance by passing -d /usr/share/ncbi/data/UniVec_Core to vecscreen.

    Also, any user for whom this legal restriction isn't a concern can
    download and use a copy of the UniVec database from
    https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/misc/data/.

    Apologies for any resulting inconvenience.
