Hi Michael,

Thanks for reporting this problem. We have now improved support for
parsing intronic variants from HGVS nomenclature. The fix has been
added to branch-ensembl-66 if you would like to pick it up  ( the
changed file is
ensembl-variation/modules/Bio/EnsEMBL/Variation/DBSQL/VariationFeatureAdaptor.pm).
Further modifications to how HGVS annotation is output, taking into
account other recent messages on this list, will be coming in release
67.

As ever, do let us know if you see further discrepancies we can
address. Specific examples we can add test are particularly valuable.

Best wishes,

Sarah
