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
