nf-core

Linting fails in my pipeline with nf-core `3.1.2` but not with `3.1.1`, and I do not understand why… You can see an example of failure here: <https://github.com/nf-core/pairgenomealign/pull/37>. I reproduced it on the `master` branch locally too…

Well the error is clear. You are missing `author` in the yaml content it is trying to load.

Now why that is I am less clear. Your `.nf-core.yml` appears to have one.

None of your `contributors` have a `name` field. You need that *or* you need to set a `manifest.author`.

The changes that moved from requiring `manifest.author` came in `3.1.2` and ~I am not clear why or how `3.1.1` would work on the same input since it *requires*~ ~`manifest.author` and you don’t have one.~
in `3.1.1` this check was actually getting skipped/ignored entirely because of your missing `manifest.author`!
But anyway the fix is as I say above
