[Bioperl-l] Can protein glyph tracks interfere with other tracks?

Hi Nathan,

Well, it certainly shouldn't!  The tracks are supposed to be
calculated independently without reusing anything.  Debugging should
be fun though.  Does it matter if you change the adaptor (for
instance, if you are using the memory adaptor for
Bio::DB::SeqFeature::Store, try putting it in a mysql database (or
vice versa) to help narrow down where the bug is.
