Good day developer!
While trying to use IO::Uncompress::Gunzip to read bgzip’d files (https://github.com/samtools/htslib.git) my scripts fail in a way that would suggest the block decompressed is not being handled correctly (partial lines are written). This tends to happen on large files.
Performing a few simple tests, it looks as though zcat and gunzip are able to correctly uncompress bgzip'd files without issue. Could we get bgzip support in IO::Compress::Gzip and IO::Uncompress::Gunzip?
Thank you so much!
