tfextract not indexing?

[Martín Sarachu]

Hi,

tfextract is apparently running ok, but it's output are files are empty.
The command line is

> # tfextract -debug -warning -error -fatal -die -verbose
> Extract data from TRANSFAC
> Full pathname of transfac SITE.DAT: /home/work/dbs/transfac/site.dat
> #

and

> # ls -s /usr/local/emboss/share/EMBOSS/data/tf*
>    0 /usr/local/emboss/share/EMBOSS/data/tffungi
>    0 /usr/local/emboss/share/EMBOSS/data/tfinsect
>    0 /usr/local/emboss/share/EMBOSS/data/tfother
>    0 /usr/local/emboss/share/EMBOSS/data/tfplant
>    0 /usr/local/emboss/share/EMBOSS/data/tfvertebrate
