I did not know that moving a package from one category
to another can be so problematic, that's because I
have little experience with pkgsrc internals.

To add a science category, even if the biology and
math packages remain where they are, sounds very good

developer (I only created a couple of packages in
pkgsrc-wip), so, is it doable? can someone create this
new category?
