+Pkg-Description:
+ Velvet is a de novo genomic assembler specially designed for short
+ read sequencing technologies, such as Solexa or 454, developed by
+ Daniel Zerbino and Ewan Birney at the European Bioinformatics
+ Institute (EMBL-EBI), near Cambridge, in the United Kingdom.
+ .
+ Velvet currently takes in short read sequences, removes errors then
+ produces high quality unique contigs. It then uses paired read
+ information, if available, to retrieve the repeated areas between
+ contigs.
+Note: The web site says GPL-3, but the tar archive contains a copy of
+ the GPL-2. It also contain a PDF manual whose sources are missing.
+ The final package would depend on zlib.
