Ghostscript was updated to version 10.03.0
Infernal is now at version 1.1.5. New in this version is support for M1 Macs, a default setting of 4 cores for multithreaded programs, support for building models from aligned fragmentary sequences in `cmbuild', new parallelizing options in `cmcalibrate` `--split` and `--merge`, improvements to the `--anytrunc` option to `cmscan` and `cmsearch` to return more hits that extend to the 5' and 3' ends of sequences, a new `--consrf` option to `cmbuild` for use in combination with the `--hand` option to define the RF annotation as the consensus sequence for the model, and a new tabular hits table output format for `cmscan` and `cmsearch` with the `--tblout --fmt 3` option.
LightDock 0.9.4 is the new default. This title was bumped a few versions with a number of new features. See the release notes for full details.
