[EMBOSS] Database too lare for dbifasta

[Ravi Vijaya Satya]

Hello,

I am trying to index a large fasta file using dbifasta. He file is 18+GB in
size. Indexing with dbifasta was working fine with EMBOSS-4.0.0. However,
with 4.1.0 or 5.0.0, it complains that the file is 'too large for DBI
indexing. Any suggestions other than switching back to 4.0.0? 

Thanks,
Ravi
