Dear Anke,

I think that the ncbi-blast package that blocks the installation of blast2 is a third-party package. Ubuntu (nor Debian, from which most Ubuntu packages come from) does not distribute a ncbi-blast package.

The simplest solution is therefore to remove the ncbi-blast package, if you are fine with the version of the blast2 package.

Have a nice day,

This bug was fixed in the package ncbi-tools6 - 6.1.20120620-5

---------------
ncbi-tools6 (6.1.20120620-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * demo/makeset.c: If unable to open an input ASN.1 file, report an error
    and exit rather than trying to work with a NULL pointer and crashing.
    (Thanks to Alexandre Rebert and the Mayhem Team at Carnegie Mellon
    University's Cylab for revealing this possibility.)
  * debian/control: Modernize libvibrant6b-dbg's short description.
