Packages
Aim to be the bioinformatics repository with more and newer packages
Aim
Current goal
-
Expansion of the users' awareness of this repository.
-
Include more popular packages for biologists.
-
Migrate about 50 packages from aur_build to lilac. [finished 06-11-2021]
Todo
Now sponsors are still needed to promote the net speed of this repository. The funding will be used to buy faster a VPS service and a domain name [done 27-12-2021]. But we still need donations.
Or some undergraduate students can hold a National Students' Innovation Entrepreneurship Training Program in his/her university to win the funding for this project. starsareintherose can give help to the undergraduate, considering her previous national level NSIETP.

When you meet some difficulty in writing PKGBUILD, lilac.yaml and so on. There are two web pages that you could find help, one is bbs.archlinux.org and another is our discussions.
