[Bioc-devel] Package failed build on Windows - couldn't load related ExperimentHub dataset

Hi Herv�,

I bumped the version again to get a new check run but unfortunately the first error I had on Windows has now happened on the Linux machine. I have no idea why this is happening?

Also, the Windows run timed out again. With the two runs, has it been noted by other developers that the check is more stringent on time than that of the Linux and Mac? Or what could be causing this?

Kind regards,
Alan.

There can be. These machines are very busy running the daily builds in
addition to the SPB and the load can get quite high sometimes,
especially between 6pm and 8am EST. It looks like these time outs
happened during that window.

This is because the Windows builders use the --merge-multiarch flag.
Please refer to my previous email where I explained this.
