Hi,

as formerly posted here I'm working onn the Debian packaging of
preconditions for the new version of cummeRbund.  The package Rsamtools
belongs to the tree of dependencies and inside its source I found some
binary files with unclear origin which will not be accepted.  Since
Martin Morgan pointed me in previous cases to the documentation inside
the package I tried to verify this first but failed.  Here are the
files in Question:

you don't mention the version you're trying to port; the following is from

  https://hedgehog.fhcrc.org/bioconductor/trunk/madman/Rpacks/Rsamtools


Files: inst/extdata/CaffeineTxdb.sqlite
  I tried `grep -R CaffeineTxdb` with no hit.

stale; removed. sqlite tables derived from querying a public data base ('biomart.org').


Files: inst/extdata/ex1.bam

ex1.sam is the text representation of ex1.bam (using Rsamtools::asBam at the time of file creation); ex1.bam.bai is an index created on ex1.bam (using Rsamtools::indexBam at the time of file creation). ex1.sam is derived from files originally distributed with 'samtools' software under an MIT license, see Rsamtools/LICENSE

  I tried

   $ grep -R ex1\.bam | grep -v system\.file
   inst/unitTests/test_BcfFile.R:        checkEquals("ex1.bam", h[["Sample"]])
   inst/doc/Rsamtools-Overview.Rnw:list.files(dirname(bamFile), 
pattern="ex1.bam(.bai)?")
   inst/doc/Rsamtools-Overview.R:list.files(dirname(bamFile), 
pattern="ex1.bam(.bai)?")
   src/samtools/knetfile.c:                fp = 
knet_open("http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Users/lh3/ex1.bam";, "r");

  None of these files is kind of documenting the origin and even worse
  the URL at www.sanger.ac.uk does not exist any more.

Files: inst/extdata/ex1.bam
  I tried `grep -R ex1\.bcf | grep -v system\.file` with no hit

ex1.bcf is a file hand created in antiquity, and used in unit tests and man 
pages.

Rsamtools$ grep -lr ex1.bcf *|grep -v svn
inst/unitTests/test_BcfFile.R
man/BcfFile-class.Rd
man/scanBcf.Rd


Files: inst/extdata/example\.gtf*:
  I tried `grep -R example\.gtf  | grep -v system\.file` with no hit

example.gtf.gz is gz-compressed text file used in unit tests and man pages, hand curated from public data sources, the .tbi variant is an index (Rsamtools::indexTabix)

Rsamtools$ grep -lr example.gtf.gz *|grep -v svn
inst/unitTests/test_TabixFile.R
man/headerTabix.Rd
man/seqnamesTabix.Rd
man/TabixFile-class.Rd


Files: inst/extdata/example_from_SAM_Spec*:
  These files are neither documented nor used since not even
    grep -R example_from_SAM_Spec
  shows any hit

This is a file useful to the developer, hand-curated from the SAM spec at

  http://samtools.sourceforge.net/SAMv1.pdf

although SAM.pdf did not historically include version numbers so the precise origin is unknown.


Files: inst/extdata/olaps.Rda
  This file is mentioned in a load statement in
   inst/doc/Rsamtools-Overview.R
  but no hint to its origin.

The script for creating this file is in the vignette Rsamtools-Overiew.Rnw

<<readGAlignmentsFromBam, eval=FALSE>>=
library(parallel)
options(srapply_fapply="parallel", mc.cores=detectCores())
olaps <- readGAlignmentsFromBam(bv)
@


Files: inst/unitTests/cases/ex1.sam.gz
  Except of the first two lines this is a copy of file
   inst/extdata/ex1.sam

Files: inst/unitTests/cases/ex1_*.bam*
  Seems these files are derived from file
   inst/extdata/ex1.sam
  and just used for verification of the correctness of
  Rsamtools.  Please confirm this suspicion.

Files: inst/unitTests/cases/plp_refskip.bam*
  I tried `grep -R plp_refskip | grep -v system\.file` with no hit

This is a hand-crafted file used in a unit test

Rsamtools$ grep -lr plp_refskip *|grep -v svn
inst/unitTests/test_applyPileups.R



It would be really helpful if you could clarify the origin of these
files since otherwise Debian ftpmasters will consider the package
as non-free which will prevent it from inclusion into main Debian
distribution and in turn we also could not get cummeRbund updated.

Kind regards and thanks for your cooperation

       Andreas.
