[BioC] Problem with GenomicRanges 1.14.3, as(from, \"GRanges\") not working for RleViewsList

[Giorgos Baskozos [guest]]

Hi,
I thik I have found a recently introduced bug in the newer version of Bioconductor and of the GenomicRanges package. I cannot turn an RleViewsList object into a GRanges object using the function as(from, "GRanges"). Specifficaly I et the following error: "Error in normalizeSingleBracketSubscript(i, x) : invalid subscript type
". The code example illustrating the problem is below:

> example(GRanges)
> mycov = coverage(longGR)
> rle.i = slice(mycov, lower=3)
> gr = as (rle.i, "GRanges")
Error in normalizeSingleBracketSubscript(i, x) : invalid subscript type
> traceback()
10: stop("invalid subscript type")
9: normalizeSingleBracketSubscript(i, x)
8: extractROWS(subject, from_ranges)
7: extractROWS(subject, from_ranges)
6: asMethod(object)
5: as(from, "RangedData")
4: .class1(object)
3: as(as(from, "RangedData"), "GRanges")
2: asMethod(object)
1: as(rle.i, "GRanges")


All best,
Giorgos
