I thought CRAN packages weren't allowed to depend on Bioconductor packages for

CRAN packages can and do depend on Bioconductor packages.
The different versioning schemes use by CRAN and by Bioconductor can lead to
confusion, and can end in tears.
My advice is to use, and tell your users to use, biocLite() for everything
(including, in devel, github, e.g., biocLite("mtmorgan/biocdb"), which delegates
to devtools).

Dear all,
I had never realised that CRAN packages that depended on Bioc packages
could actually not be installed with install.packages without setting a
repo or using BiocInstaller::bioLite. Here is an example using a fresh R
installation

Depends: amap, clValid, cluster, fpc, mzR, xcms
$ docker run --rm -ti rocker/r-base R

This does sound really counter-intuitive. Am I missing anything?
