diamond for Debian
------------------

There is a name conflict with 

  diamond - smart data producer for Graphite graphing package

The short story is: We are facing a name clash in the Free Software
universe and we have to circumvent this somehow.  The Debian Med team
deals with situation usually the following way:

  1. The diamond executable resides in
        /usr/lib/debian-med/bin/diamond
     and can be either executed there or users can use
  2. A symlink with the name
        /usr/bin/diamond-aligner
     which can be used alternatively

If you want to use diamond right from the command line just set the
PATH variable like

  export PATH=/usr/lib/debian-med/bin:$PATH

If a user creates a file

    ${HOME}/.blends

with the content

# Add Blend names here which should prepend its bin dir to PATH
debian-med

the med-config package automatically adds this PATH to the users
environment (when using bash).
