Hi Bianca,
Not sure - I still think that it's something related to the filesystems,
but I'm a little confused now about the different directories involved.
Can you run
featregapply <featdir> -c
on all first (and combined first) level featdirs, and then try running the
higher-level analysis again - then send me directly all relevant
report.log files, and a full ls -R listing of any first-level (or
combined) featdirs where you think there was a problem.
Cheers, Steve.
