gnomAD v4.1 SV database contains mix of SV and CNV - svdb problem

[fa2k]

Description of the bug

gnomAD SV v4.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/news/2023-11-v4-structural-variants/) contains some CNVs that don't have AC or AF information in the vcf (gnomad.v4.1.sv.sites.vcf.gz).

svdb --query is refusing to annotate the vcf if the annotations for --in_occ or --in_frq are missing (in this case AC and AF) for some variants in the database, producing an output vcf without any variants.

It works if I remove lines without AC / AF from the gnomad file, but that means we remove this gnomAD information. Would it make sense to somehow integrate this CNV information for the annotation of SVs instead?

Output (command.log): 

INFO:    Environment variable SINGULARITYENV_NXF_TASK_WORKDIR is set, but APPTAINERENV_NXF_TASK_WORKDIR is preferred
INFO:    Environment variable SINGULARITYENV_NXF_DEBUG is set, but APPTAINERENV_NXF_DEBUG is preferred
Error: frequency or hit tag not found! Make sure to set the --in_occ AND --in_frq to the number and frequency of alleles/individuals as presented in the INFO column of the input db

database variants not having the --in_occ or --in_frq tag must be removed
you may also skip these parameters and cluster based on the GT entry of the format column (if such exists)
