[BioC] contrast matrix warning

[scholz@Ag.arizona.edu]

Hi Seth,

Thanks for your response. Given my Cro-Magnon-level computing skills, though,
I'm not quite sure what this all means. You are correct that I'm using the
recent R-devel, and if I understand you correctly, I shouldn't worry about the
message?

Thanks,

Matt

What version of R are you using?  My guess is a recent R-devel.  The
NEWS file says:

 o   Changed environment tree to be rooted in an empty environment,
    available as emptyenv().  baseenv() modified to return an
    environment with emptyenv() as parent, rather than NULL.

 o   Use of NULL as an environment is deprecated and gives a warning.

You will, at least, see this message any time you load an annotation
data package (that is, until we rebuilt the annotation packages with
the latest R-devel).
