Hello, 

I have been trying to make a TxDb from na gtf but always occur this error. I already saw posts about reinstallation of packages but I tried almost everything and I couldn't fix it. Could anyone helpe me, please?

txdb = GenomicFeatures::makeTxDbFromGFF("schisto-transcriptome/schisto.gtf",format="gtf")
Import genomic features from the file as a GRanges object ... OK
Prepare the 'metadata' data frame ... OK
Make the TxDb object ... Error in c(x, value) : 
  could not find symbol "recursive" in environment of the generic function
