[Bioc-devel] Some granges() accessors broken in devel

Hi Pete,

Because of various issues with the builds, some recent changes to
some core packages have not been able to propagate. So for example
the version of GenomicRanges currently available via biocLite() is
1.25.4, which is lagging behind the version that is in svn (1.25.8).
I think this could be what is causing the problem you're reporting
(which I cannot reproduce).

For now the workaround it to install (or re-install) the latest versions
of S4Vectors, IRanges, GenomicRanges, and SummarizedExperiment directly
from svn.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

H.
