I can provide a bit more details to my question. I've
managed to create bam
input that gives rise to the following mpileup output:

[/snip]

indicating a 1241bp deletion on chrX (actually, this is
C.elegans data).

However, when I do genotype calling on the same bam input
using

samtools mpileup -r chrX:8900000-9000000 -Dgu -f
WS220.64_chr.fa input.bam |
bcftools view -gv - > output.vcf

then that deletion is totally ignored (I tried already -
with no effect -
disabling BAQ calculation and -Q 0 just to make sure those
aren't the problem).

I am just looking for an explanation for this behavior and,
ideally, a
solution that allows me to keep using samtools for aligned
input like this.

The thought behind this is that I would like to stick with
one variant
caller for everything (SNVs, indels, deletions) instead of
invoking
different ones for every variant type.

Any thoughts?
