Dear Andreas,

I know I have a manifest somewhere depending on freebayes. However, I am 
unsure when was the last time I ran it. And even then I could use 
time-machine to get a working version of freebayes running. So removing 
it is not a big deal. However, it seems that upstream is aware of the 
failing test suite [1]. Unfortubnately building --with-latest=freebayes 
did not immediately lead me to success.

Perhaps what should be discussed is the potential overlap (at leat 
conceptually) between the guix channel bioinformatic tools (as found in 
bioinformatics.scm) and the many more tools in the guix-science channel. 
Would it make sense to move all these packages over to the guix-science 
channel?

Best
Sebastian
