Are you looking for biological software in and outside Debian in general?
I hope you noticed

     http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med/microbio

There is a link to inofficial packages of Emboss, but the site of Matt Hope
was reorganized.  Find the sources of the package directly at

     http://debian.bioinformatics.unsw.edu.au/dists/sid/main/source/science/

The packages are for version 2.8  the latest upstream version seems to be 3.0.
I started an Alioth project at

     http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-emboss/

but this does not have any content yet.

ACK.

Kind regards
