Dear Martin and Valerie,
I am not sure how to proceed here since the 14th is approaching and I still see this error (in both my package and at least one other package ---arrayQualityMetrics). I could comment out the plotting code for the vignette and examples when running on El Capitan. Is this a possible workaround that I should implement? If this is reasonable, what is the recommended way to find out the code is running in El Capitan and not Mavericks? (For instance, can I tell from Sys.info()["sysname"]? --I do not have access to a Mac). Martin mentioned that the Cairo package requires a binary installation that is not yet available. Should I continue to wait? There is not a lot of margin for changing the code, uploading to BioC, waiting for the build, and making sure it works. What if it continues to fail on El Capitan by the 14th? Best, R.
