Hi,

can't load the SWISSPROT- bacteria database 
(ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/swissprot/special_selections/bacteria.seq) 
into EMBOSS. I think EMBOSS is running well because I have no problem 
accessing the test-databases (see showdb below). However, I think 
somehow seqret is using the wrong division file but the PATH-setting 
seem to be correct.

greetings,

joerg
