[Bioperl-l] swissprot stream with no ID. Not swissprot in my book

[Chris Fields]

This did fix it for most users; this is the first problem I have seen  
with it since then.

We don't have enough information to go on here to really diagnose the  
problem beyond that you're using Bio::Perl.  Are you using the latest  
BioPerl version (1.5.2, which has the fix)?  How did you retrieve  
your sequence (i.e. do you have a script)?  What OS are you on?

I run the following using the latest bioperl and it works:

use Bio::Perl;
my $seq = get_sequence('swissprot',"ROA1_HUMAN");
print $seq->accession_number,"\n";
print $seq->seq,"\n";
