That's great to know, thanks! I think I will use BiocManager::install
for now, both because it uses the correct repositories and because it
doesn't forcibly reinstall the packages I am asking for. With bspm, I
can run BiocManager::install(all_the_dependencies) and have the system
perform the least amount of work required to reach the desired state.
