Dear bioc-devel,

multicrispr is having an error on the bioc-devel build 
machines<https://bioconductor.org/checkResults/3.12/bioc-LATEST/multicrispr/malbec1-checksrc.html>,
 caused by:

unable to find an inherited method for function 'bsgenomeName' for signature 
'"BSgenome"

This is a bit strange, because normally a BSgenome object gets automatically 
converted to a GenomeDescription object before being sent to the method 
bsgenomeName. In bioc-devel, for some reason this mechanism seems to be broken. 
Is it on purpose? What would be the best fix/patch?

Right now, I'm checking whether explicitation fixes things:
bsname <- GenomeInfoDb::bsgenomeName(bsgenome)                                  
   # FAILS
bsname <- GenomeInfoDb::bsgenomeName(as(bsgenome, 'GenomeDescription')) # WORKS 
? (VERIFYING)

Thank you for feedback :-)

Aditya
