[BioC] QuasR: problem accessing BSgenome.Rnorvegicus.UCSC.rn5

Hi Guido and Herve,
You were both spot on. In the development version 1.3.9 of QuasR, we
adapted to the new (BioC 2.14) type of BSgenome packages, so QuasR >=
1.3.9 only works with these.
One clarification regarding the treatment of masks in QuasR:
- QuasR <= 1.2.x has ignored masks in BSgenome packages
during alignment
- QuasR >= 1.3.9 now handles BSgenome objects with or without masks,
so that the following the statement:
qAlign(..., genome="BSgenome.Rnorvegicus.UCSC.rn5")
is equivalent to the old behaviour (no masking), but the statement:
qAlign(..., genome="BSgenome.Rnorvegicus.UCSC.rn5.masked")
now aligns against a masked genome.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Michael

I meanwhile re-installed the BSgenome package from source, and now QuasR is working on my Win7 machine as it should be (thus with v1.3.99). Based on your comments I am currently using the masked file, because that is the equivalent of the old file.
