[Bioperl-l] parsing entrezgene file (lost data)

[Chris Fields]

Carne,

Using the latest Bio::ASN1::EntrezGene parser and bioperl-live from github, and changing the dumper module to Data::Dumper, I can sort of repeat this, but I see the accession attached to a URL only (in the ASN1 output it is in several places).  The Bio::Seq is populated with data, however, which makes me think these tags are not parsed for some reason, or the SeqIO parser is not catching them.  

Can you file this as a bug and attach the problematic EntrezGene data?  Not sure if it is in the ASN1 parser itself or the bioperl SeqIO parser.
