Hi, Bioconductor list and Ting-Yuan:

 

I have problems in using AnnBuilder package.

 

1)       May I use Windows based R environment to run ABPkgBuilder? I
haven't been successfully run this command. I saw there is a condition
before this command is "if(.Platform$OS != "windows" && interactive())",
Does this mean this command cannot run on windows platform?

2)       I also tried to install AnnBuilder in R2.2.0 on Linux server. But I
haven't been successfully installed it. The problem is before I could
install XML package, it gave me error message "****    You should use a
recent version of libxml2, i.e. 2.6.22 or higher  ****". And when I tried to
install 'libxml2', I got the following error: 

   > install.packages("libxml2")

Warning in download.packages(pkgs, destdir = tmpd, available = available,  :

         no package 'libxml2' at the repositories

So I want to ask how I can successfully install 'libxml2' on Linux server?

R version 2.2.0, 2005-10-06, i686-pc-linux-gnu

 

attached base packages:

[1] "methods"   "stats"     "graphics"  "grDevices" "utils"     "datasets"

[7] "base"

 

3)       I found that UniGene source URL always point to 'Homo sapiens' data
even for the organism other than 'Homo sapiens'. Is that true?

 

Thanks for your attention!
