hi,

multiple packages, among them, Gviz or VariantFiltering, currently break in the build machines with the following error:

Error : object ‘path’ is not exported by 'namespace:Rsamtools'

see, for instance:

http://www.bioconductor.org/checkResults/3.7/bioc-LATEST/VariantFiltering/malbec2-buildsrc.html

it seems this is related to the following recent change in Rsamtools:


commit 4c9af13619f8b16955682072da316a0a961a5623
Author: Hervé Pagès <hpa...@fredhutch.org>

    use new path() generic defined in BiocGenerics instead of own


by which, if i understand this correctly, Rsamtools does not export the 'path()' method anymore and from now on it should be imported from BiocGenerics.

i've made the change in VariantFiltering of removing the import of the 'path()' method and i'm importing the whole 'BiocGenerics' but i still get the error:

Error : object ‘path’ is not exported by 'namespace:Rsamtools'

when i try to build the package with the vignettes or if i build it without them but i try to install it. i thought that maybe because 'Gviz' has the same problem and VariantFiltering imports 'Gviz', the problem could be now with 'Gviz' but i do not see anywhere that 'Gviz' imports 'path()' from Rsamtools.

i'm a bit lost, can i fix this somehow or does this depend on fixing something more upstream?

thanks!

robert.
