I am having trouble installing the flowCore package, because of  issues with
the "rpanel" and "feature" packages, maybe related to TclTk support. Below
is my sessionInfo information and more details from the flowCore
installation log. I just downloaded R 2.9.0 on April 22, 2009 and installed
BioConductor using:


source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite()
biocLite("flowCore")

> sessionInfo()
