[Bioc-devel] Can anyone reproduce this? Possible bug or typo in BiocManager:::.version_map() or upstream

[Martin Morgan]

It's because Bioconductor won't be building (supporting) R-4.2 (R-devel) until six months from now, even in the 'devel' branch of Bioconductor. Bioc 3.14 (once it becomes available after the Bioconductor release) will use R 4.1 and the table will be updated to have line 34 as 3.14 / 4.1. There will be an entry 3.15/4.2/future, but there won't be a 3.15...

    Hi,

    I get

     > BiocManager::install()
    Error: Bioconductor version '3.13' requires R version '4.1'; R version is too new; see
      https://bioconductor.org/install

    and this appears to be because of the last line in

    > BiocManager:::.version_map()
       Bioc    R  BiocStatus RSPM MRAN
    …(29 lines omitted)….
    30 3.10  3.6 out-of-date <NA> <NA>
    31 3.11  4.0 out-of-date <NA> <NA>
    32 3.12  4.0     release <NA> <NA>
    33 3.13  4.1       devel <NA> <NA>
    34 3.13  4.2      future <NA> <NA>

    Shouldn’t it say “3.14” in the second element of the last line?

    and I seem to have the most recent version of BiocManager as of today’s https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/BiocManager/index.html

    Btw the result of

    > BiocManager:::.get_R_version()
    [1] ‘4.2.0’

    is probably technically not correct, as it’s r-devel.

    Kind regards
