[BioC] makecdfenv not installed?

[Martin Lercher]

Hi,

First of all: thanks for providing this wonderful set of programs.

I hope I'm not being too stupid with this question. I have R 1.9.0 
installed on a Windows2000 machine. I installed BioConductor with 
 >getBioC(relLevel="release")
It seems to work fine.

However, according to the documentation of getBioC, the installed 
default set should include the "affy" set, which in turn should 
include the "makecdfenv" package. However, makecdfenv doesn't seem to 
be installed (it is not there when looking at library(), 
library(makecdfenv) results in an error message, and I can't use 
make.cdf.package()).

I've then tried
 >getBioC(libName="makecdfenv", bundle=FALSE)
...
[1] "All requested packages are up to date"
Warning message:
'package.description' is deprecated.

I've also tried installing makecdfenv by hand, but failed...

Thanks for your help,
Martin
