Recently, investigating why the substitute of ’python-pysam’ was not
available, I decided then to give a try at fixing the TODO:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
              (snippet '(begin
                          ;; Drop bundled htslib. TODO: Also remove samtools
                          ;; and bcftools.
                          (delete-file-recursively "htslib")
                          #t))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

And the bundled version is 1.9 (if I remember correctly), therefore
because of:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    (native-inputs
     `(("python-cython" ,python-cython)
       ;; Dependencies below are are for tests only.
       ("samtools" ,samtools)
       ("bcftools" ,bcftools)
       ("python-nose" ,python-nose)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

some tests are unhappy.

That’s said, these additions seem fine with me. :-)


All the best,
simon
