The GBrowse setup procedure has been changed. Previously, the group files were stored in CVS, and the Other.group was used to fill in the gaps. Unfortunately, it is possible that if the site is remade enough times, the Other.group would not have all the genomes in it. The group files have therefore been moved out of CVS and they will be generated automatically from the group information in the database. Before the database is loaded, special dummy group files will be put in place to prevent the make from failing.
Hopefully, this will be the end of the GBrowse craziness.
