[Bioc-devel] BiocParallel: changes to SnowParam(), should it import futile.logger?

[Valerie Obenchain]

Hi Leo,

Thanks for reporting this. It was missed by the build system (and 
myself!) because the package was already installed. Should be fixed in 
1.1.16.

futile.logger (and others) were moved to Suggests to lighten the load of 
the NAMESPACE. Logging isn't technically turned on until the cluster is 
started with bpstart(), however, futile.logger is used to check the 
threshold when the class is instantiated. This step is important in 
class validation so I've moved futile.logger back to Imports.

Valerie
