Hi Lucille,

Have you looked at the issue here? Consider nudging the developer there as well.

https://github.com/lawremi/rtracklayer/issues/110

To summarize, (for now) use the GH version of rtracklayer with the fix applied:

BiocManager::install("lawremi/rtracklayer")

Best,

Marcel

While the maintainer to should fix the code, We've also adjusted the docker image to change the ERROR to a Warning for now. It has just been merged so it should be reflected in an updated docker image shortly
