Just simply command below shows bug in in genbankr.

library("genbankr")

gba = GBAccession("CP003597")

readGenBank(gba, partial=TRUE)

Error in split.default(text, fldnames) : 

  group length is 0 but data length > 0

The error happen in latest version of R and genbankr

How we can fix this ?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay getting back to you. The issue here was not a bug in genbankr, per se, but rather a but introduced in a new version of the underlying rentrez package. This has now been fixed in both release and devel and you should no longer get this error.

Best,
