Known issues:
All of these are pre-existing.
Some users have reported that normalize-by-median.py will utilize more
memory than it was configured for. This is being investigated in
#266
Some FASTQ files confuse our parser when running with more than one thread.
For example, while using load-into-counting.py. If you experience this then
add "--threads=1" to your command line. This issue is being tracked in
#249
If your k-mer table is truncated on write, an error may not be reported; this
is being tracked in #443.
However, khmer will now (correctly) fail when trying to read a truncated file
(See #333).
Paired-end reads from Casava 1.8 currently require renaming for use in
normalize-by-median and abund-filter when used in paired mode. The
integration of a fix for this is being tracked in #23
Some scripts only output FASTA even if given a FASTQ file. This issue
is being tracked in #46
A user reported that abundance-dist-single.py fails with small files and many
threads. This issue is being tracked in #75
