[BioC] Hmisc 3.7.0

[Benilton Carvalho]

(r-help question?)

You're installing from the source and you forgot to tell
install.packages that. You were expected to do:

install.packages("Hmisc_3.6-1.tar.gz", repos=NULL, lib=<your lib>,
type="source")

this will require you to have XCode installed + gfortran.

Maybe it is just easier to use:

install.packages("Hmisc", dep=TRUE)

and let R do it for you (it'll download the binary, which is supposed
to 'just work').
