Hi,

I have a question regarding the Bioconductor source control repository. I was wondering whether I should upload the original sources or the built version of a package. I could not find the answer anywhere, and the reason I am asking this is that I get the following warning from the daily BioC 2.11 build/check report during the check:

checking data for ASCII and uncompressed saves ... WARNING

  Note: significantly better compression could be obtained
        by using R CMD build --resave-data

I currently commit the sources to the SVN before building them. If I build the package using the --resave-data option and then run R CMD check it, the warning does not show anymore. Should I rather commit the built version of the package to the svn, in oder to get rid of the warning, or is this nothing severe anyways?

Thanks,

Juliane
