----------------------
There is a name conflict of the executable kget with the kget download
manager. So in Debian the executable is renamed to sra-kget. Upstream
was recommended to change the name in
https://github.com/ncbi/sra-tools/issues/55
Upstream is aware of this issue and will rename to vdb-get.
For the moment the Debian Med team deals with situation usually the following way:
1. The kget executable belonging to sra-toolkit is renamed to
/usr/bin/vdb-get
and can be used as this or users can use
2. symlink with the original name in
/usr/lib/debian-med/bin/kget
If you want to use sra-toolkit's kget right from the command line just set
the PATH variable like
export PATH=/usr/lib/debian-med/bin:$PATH
If a user creates a file
${HOME}/.blends
with the content
# Add Blend names here which should prepend its bin dir to PATH
debian-med
the med-config package automatically adds this PATH to the users
environment (when using bash).
