Changes in 3.22.2 (Bioconductor 3.23)
  • Fix bug where bSubControl set in dba.count() was not preserved on the returned object, so a subsequent dba.normalize() (and hence dba.analyze()) could silently fall back to control subtraction based on is.null(greylist) rather than honoring the value used for counting. pv.counts() now re-stamps bSubControl onto the reconstructed object and forwards it through the summit re-centering step. Reported by Tomasz Wlodarczyk and Xiaosai Yao.
