[Bioc-devel] 'OUTRIDER' Bioconductor package

[Martin Morgan]

I think this is an error in BiocParallel that has been corrected (in v. 1.19.4) but not yet propagated through the build system and report.

    Dear Bioc Team,
    
    I noticed already the error and I'm not completely sure why this is 
    happening. On appveyor it is going through with no problems. I never 
    call the function mcparallel but I did register MulticoreParams() in the 
    vignette which could caused the problem. But I'm puzzled why it works on 
    appveyor and not on Bioconductor.
    
    I did removed now the MutlicoreParam call. So lets see if it solved the 
    problem.
    
    Best,
    Christian
