[Bioperl-l] Bio::DB::Fasta bug

[Chris Fields]

All,

I just added a BioPerl bug fix for this issue:

https://redmine.open-bio.org/issues/3172

which catches cases where no match occurs in a sequence header for the regex '>(\S+)' and throws a proper exception (previously it treated the line as part of the sequence).  My concern is performance issues with the fix, particularly with regards to Bio::DB::Sam and other code using Bio::DB::Fasta.  If there is a significant performance issue let me know and I can revert those.
