[Bioc-devel] fixing 'path' not being exported by 'Rsamtools'

[Hervé Pagès]

Hi Robert,

Gviz depends on ensembldb which needed to have its NAMESPACE adjusted
(i.e. import the path() generic from BiocGenerics instead of
Rsamtools). I fixed ensembldb today. I also adjusted VariantFiltering
NAMESPACE (in version 1.15.18) so now you should be able to install
it again.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

H.
