[Bioc-devel] bioconductor_docker:devel missing MAE and GenomeInfoDb

[Robert Castelo]

hi,

a possible workaround is to install directly from the repo using the 
syntax "Bioconductor/pkgname" in the call to 'BiocManager::install()'. 
this just worked in my current devel container:

BiocManager::install("Bioconductor/GenomeInfoDb")

while attempting to 'BiocManager::install("GenomeInfDb")' didn't. i 
think the following discussion we had on June last year in this list is 
relevant to his issue:

cheers,

robert.

Surprisingly, they seemed to be available earlier in the day - my action failed for a different reason, much later in the process.
