[Bioc-devel] How to suppress startup messages

[Martin Morgan]

I think the best / only way to do this is to convince the author that this type of self-promotion is not helpful in the long run --- if all maintainers did this then a typical R session would start with 10's of these, and each would have no impact.

    Hi there,
    Loading the bioconductor package artMS gets the following startup message:
    
    library(artMS)
    
    Package PerformanceAnalytics (1.5.2) loaded.

    I know that the user has the option of doing…
    
    suppressPackageStartupMessages(library(PerformanceAnalytics))
    or
    suppressPackageStartupMessages(library(artMS))
    
    But how can these messages from these dependencies (imported packages) be
    suppressed? i.e., how to load artMS and prevent that message from happening
    automatically?
    
    Thanks!
    David
