[Bioc-devel] subread-buildindex fails on genome with many scaffolds?

[Wei Shi]

Hi Ryan,

It seems you are using a quite old version of Subread. The latest version of SourceForge Subread is 1.4.2 and the latest version of bioc Rsubread is 1.12.3. These indexing building issues had already been fixed.

Cheers,
Wei
