curious error when reading fastq.gz files (maybe not an issue) about seq_io HOT 2 CLOSED

Without details about the implementation, I cannot precisely know what is going on.

However, in case you are using GzDecoder from the flate2 crate, the described error can in fact occur. Many 'fastq.gz' files are multi-member files which makes it necessary to use MultiGzDecoder instead. I've hit this problem earlier as well, since I didn't know about this. Could this be the problem in your case?

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your reply and my apologies for not giving you more details!
You have indeed identified my mistake: I was using GzDecoder instead of GzDecoder. Now all files are correctly parsed.

best,
Romain
