[BioC] : [R] Problems wih EBImage for windows 7

[Evan Misshula]

Hi Gregiore,
Has any progress been made on this issue?  I am a windows user who also installed GTK+ and the latest version of ImageMagick 6.6.6-5-dll.exe before discovering the binaries do not work for windows 7.  There appear to be no old binaries of 6.5.x to drop back to.  I am too unsophisticated to attempt a build.
Thank you for your update.

Best,

Evan Misshula

Hello Heberto,

The issue you are reporting seems to be due to a recent modification of 
the ImageMagick API, on which EBImage relies on to read/write images. We 
are currently fixing this issue. In the meanwhile, please use a previous 
version of ImageMagick (such as 6.5.x).

Best regards,

Greg
