gbff files cannot be imported

ecoli_genes <- read_feats("GCA_009738455.1_ASM973845v1_genomic.gbff")
ecoli_genes <- read_gbk("GCA_009738455.1_ASM973845v1_genomic.gbff")

The above functions are not working. Return the following error:
Harmonizing attribute names
Error in left_join():
! Can't join on x$feat_id x y$feat_id because of incompatible types.
i x$feat_id is of type logical.

I cannot recreate your error on my system (see below). Can you install the latest version of gggenomes? And what OS are you on? Could you send me the output of your sessionInfo()?

The problem is running R on Windows. I tried to run R on Linux using the docker container and the function read_gbk() worked well.

Thanks for the info. I haven't enough time to take the package out on Windows...
