Package: tabix
Version: 0.2.6-1

autopkgtest of tabix [1] currently fails with:
"""
adt-run: trace: & dsc0t-with-example-data: - - - - - - - - - - results - - - - - - - - - - dsc0t-with-example-data FAIL status: 0, stderr: [tabix] The file type not recognise... adt-run: trace: & dsc0t-with-example-data: - - - - - - - - - - stderr - - - - - - - - - - [tabix] The file type not recognised and -p not given, using the preset [gff]. adt-run: trace: & dsc0t-with-example-data: ----------------------------------------]
"""


This is because the warning is written to stderr while per specification of DEP8 it should be written to stdout.

Excerpt from from DEP8 specification [2]
"""
Each test program should, on success, exit with status 0 and print nothing to stderr; if a test exits nonzero, or prints to stderr, it is considered to have failed.
"""

The dep8 test should be updated either to use the option -p of tabix to fix the warning/error or redirect stderr to stdout and exit with an appropriate exit code if the message is expected.
