[Bioc-devel] GenomeInfoDb is breaking bumphunter

[Samuela Pollack]

Dear Bioconductor,

The GenomeInfoDb package is generating an error in 3.8 and causing our 
package bumphunter to crash too.

Our test calls GenomeInfoDb::fetchExtendedChromInfoDb and crashes with 
an error that says some UCSC seqlevels in hg38 couldn't be mapped to 
NCBI seqlevels. The release version of GenomeInfoDb is crashing in the 
same function with the same error message.

The github repo for GenomeInfoDb indicates some work was done on this 
routine two days ago. It looks like maybe we need a way to set the 
drop_unmapped flag? Is that possible? What would you recommend?

thanks,

- Sam
