Incompatible with new versions of samtools? #115

Hello,

I was wondering if the dependency requirements could be bumped to use more recent versions of htslib implementing recent bug fixes.

Thank you

Hello @Ge0rges

mOTUs is using samtools only for reading/writing/sorting bam files and not editing. The used functions should be relatively stable in htslib/samtools releases. So yes, using a newer version of samtools should not create any issue. However we cannot test this at the moment.

Best, Hans
