inconsistent pheno tables between gene and transcript datasets

Dear recount team,
First of all, congratulations this great resource, which I am regularly using for training and research.
I have a problem with several studies (e.g. SRP042620), where the structure of the pheno table extracted from RData files downloaded from recount differs between transcript and gene datasets.
For the gene dataset, the characteristics field is a CompressedCharacteristics (as expected)
> phenoTable <- colData(rse_gene) ## phenotype per run
> class(phenoTable$characteristics)
[1] "CompressedCharacterList"
attr(,"package")
[1] "IRanges"
For the transcript dataset, it is a vector
> phenoTable <- colData(rse_tx) ## phenotype per run
> class(phenoTable$characteristics)
[1] "character"
Is there a way to fix this ?
Many thanks,
Jacques van Helden
Hi,
This is a duplicate question of https://support.bioconductor.org/p/116480/ that includes the answer at https://support.bioconductor.org/p/116480/#124335
The data hasn't changed since then, so the answer should still apply (which you reported as working in https://support.bioconductor.org/p/116480/#125723)
Best,
Leo
