Hi Herve,
is there really a hard requirement on the input files to forgeBSgenomeDataPkg 
to be unzipped? Even though one would usually only build a particular BSGenome 
package once, this seems to be such an arcane requirement nowadays with gzip 
connections and the like.

Agreed. This needs to be modernized. forgeBSgenomeDataPkg() uses
readDNAStringSet() internally to load the FASTA files.
readDNAStringSet() doesn't support gzip'ed connections at the
moment but it's on my list to add it.

Cheers,
H.
