[Bioc-devel] Replicating Windows build error for BioC package submission

[Hervé Pagès]

Hi Ben,

There was a file permission issue on our Windows builder. It should be 
addressed now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please bump the version of the package to trigger a new build by the 
SPB. Thanks!

H.
