human herpesvirus 2 missing from database

[rgiannico]

Human herpesvirus 2 sequence is absent from the Viral Kraken Database (and all the derivate Databases). It's strange because:

• all other non-human herpesvirus 2 sequences are present in the Viral Kraken Database (see code below)
• Human herpesvirus 2 sequence "NC_001798.2" is present in the Viral NCBI RefSeq Database (see code below)
• Human herpesvirus 2 is quite an important human virus, I dare to say it MUST be present in the Kraken database.

Is there a specific reason why it is missing? Here some simple code for reproducibility:

# get krakendb viral taxa
$ wget https://genome-idx.s3.amazonaws.com/kraken/viral_20231009/library_report.tsv
$ grep "herpesvirus 2" library_report.tsv | cut -f 2 | sort > krakendb.txt

# get RefSeq viral taxas
$ wget https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/refseq/release/viral/viral.1.1.genomic.fna.gz
$ zgrep "^>" viral.1.1.genomic.fna.gz | grep "herpesvirus 2" | sort > viralgenomic.txt

# find differences
$ diff -y krakendb.txt viralgenomic.txt
