Source: r-base Version: 3.4.1.20170921-1 Affects: r-bioc-biocgenerics r-bioc-iranges r-bioc-variantannotation User: [email protected] Usertags: origin-ubuntu artful autopkgtest
Hi Dirk Rebuilding the arch:all package r-bioc-biocgenerics against r-base-dev 3.4.1.20170921-1 or 3.4.2-1 seems to cause the eventual failure of autopkgtests in r-bioc-iranges and r-bioc-variantannotation. IRanges RUnit Tests - 91 test functions, 2 errors, 0 failures ERROR in test_AtomicList_general: Error in match.arg(method) : 'arg' must be of length 1 ERROR in test_AtomicList_numerical: Error in match.arg(method) : 'arg' must be of length 1 VariantAnnotation RUnit Tests - 80 test functions, 1 error, 0 failures ERROR in test_VRanges_vcf: Error in match.arg(method) : 'arg' must be of length 1 On a system with all of the packages built against r-base-dev 3.4.2-1, force-installing only the old r-bioc-biocgenerics package makes the "'arg' must be of length 1" error disappear and the tests pass. Similarly, on a system with all of the old packages, force-installing only r-bioc-biocgenerics built against r-base-dev 3.4.2-1 causes the error to appear. Any ideas what could be causing this or how I can debug this further, please? Might r-bioc-biocgenerics/r-bioc-iranges/r-bioc-variantannotation need some changes to be compatible with R 3.4.2? Regards Graham
