[Bioc-devel] Bioconductor install instructions for M1-based Mac

[Oleksii Nikolaienko]

I don't know if this has been mentioned, but the following pages are of an
immense help:
https://mac.r-project.org/
https://mac.r-project.org/openmp/
It is possible and quite easy to get a native M1 build of R with OpenMP
support and no issues with Bioc packages.

Best,
Oleksii
