Hi Michel,

Yes wublast is the problem.  On current versions of maker the opts file defaults to ncbi+, but older versions the opts file defaults to wublast.  Just edit you maker_bopts.ctl file to have the line:

blast_type=ncbi+

It seems like this option may have been in maker_opts.ctl in older files, so if you don't find it in bopts then look in opts.
