[BioC] Problem installing BiocGenerics package

[Eric Lucas [guest]]

Hello,

I am trying to install the BiocGenerics package in R 3.0.1 on Linux Mint 16 (based on Ubuntu 13.10). When I run "biocLite('BiocGenerics'), I get an error saying 'no item called "(unknown)" on the search list' (full output below). I've had a look but couldn't find any other record of this problem online. Any help would be gratefully appreciated

Thanks

Eric
