Hi,

Firstly thanks to the creators of this very useful package.

I've come across SRA identifiers that don't appear to be in the database (a
minority, but still). Here's a few:

SRA036600
DRX001436
SRA049463
ERA062401
ERA062401

For example:
> library(SRAdb)
> sra_con = dbConnect(SQLite(),'SRAmetadb.sqlite')
> sraConvert(c('SRA036600'), sra_con= sra_con)
[1] submission study      sample     experiment run
<0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)

However this isn't a bogus accession because I can see it on the NCBI SRA
website.

I could be wrong but I don't think it is as simple as the metadata being
out of date because the submission dates are often relatively old
(SRA036600 was 2011-05-13) and there's metadata from more recent SRA
submissions in the SRAdb).


Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
ben
