Interesting. I'm glad you sorted it out and thanks for checking in a fix.

If you run into problems with git there is some good documentation here:

Fixed. You were right about R 3.5. They've started issuing a warning about deprecation of using * to multiply a one by one matrix onto a vector. I did that about a thousand times and then the vignette had a code-output table that was impossibly tall.  Explicitly casting the 1x1 matrix into a vector lets the x*y be used without warnings. Looks like other people ran into this situation mid 2017.

I am unfamiliar with the github system, so I pushed my code up to the git repo and am just hoping it gets picked up by the bioconductor systems tomorrow.

Aha, the error is reproduced in R 3.5.0. I can take a look at it now.

I'm out for the next few days so will look into this more next week.

I should mention this week we updated to the release candidate of R 3.5.0 on all release and devel build machines. Today rgsepd is broken on all 3 platforms which may point to a change in R itself. Are you using R 3.5.0 for testing? If not, it would be a good idea to update and see if you can reproduce the error.

Hi Karl,

I'll look into this.

How can I debug an error that occurs on the build server and not on my PC ?
I am having build errors on two of the three build servers with a line
about vignette compilation and the latex error does not have enough detail
to find the source of the problem.
I've recompiled the package on my machine and the vignette looks fine.
There have been no updates recently, so I dont have any code changes to
point at !
