      Description

      BLAST is an obsolete version of the program. Currently UGENE support it and the newer version BLAST+. Additionally, since macOS Catalina 32-bit applications can't run, so BLAST produce an error.

      Remove BLAST from UGENE, leave only BLAST+.

      More precisely:

      • Remove the general BLAST classes.
      • Remove BLAST items from the "Tools" main menu and from the context menu in the SV (and "Actions" main menu of the SV).
      • Remove BLAST executables from the external tool packages.
      • Remove BLAST from the UGENE installers.
      • Remove command "/data/cmdline/local-blast.uwl".
      • Modify workflow sample "Gene-by-gene approach for characterization of genomes" so that it used BLAST+ instead of BLAST.

      In the documentation make sure:

      • The tool is not mentioned in the main manual.
      • There is no more BLAST command description (CLI).
      • The tool is not mentioned in the external tools table.
