I'm having difficulty auto-updating packages in R 2.5/BioC 2.0. R
packages update without problem, BioC packages result in following
error. It seems this happened with BioC 1.9 development also. What is
the acceptable protocol for updating BioC development packages? Could it
be made the same as CRAN for consistency? 

 

While I'm on a tear here, has anyone ever thought of synching the
version numbers for BioC and R? I don't have a problem with it, but it
might help newbies keep things straight. I frequently see problems on
the BioC list caused by non-synched versions of BioC and R.

 

Thanks,

Mark Kimpel, Indiana U.
