[Bioperl-l] get_Seq_by_id question

[Heikki Lehvaslaiho]

Ok. This should be fixed soon.

A couple of releases ago EMBL introduced accession number ranges for 
situations where there is a long list of secondary accession numbers it 
(GenBank has used them a bit longer), e.g.

AC   AY883861; AF333345-AF333346; AH010225;

The code that expanded this range was broken in the EBI SRS server. It was 
fixed yesterday, but with the huge size if the database it takes a while to 
propagate the fix into the public server.

Yours,
 -Heikki
