??I think one option for me would be to switch to RBowtie instead of Rsubread, since this seems to have a windows binary. I would try this as soon as I have access to a windows system.

Users can continue the analysis after mapping with their tool of choice as well. Therefore I added it in "suggests" and skip running it in the example and don't evaluate that chunk in the vignette. I wouldn't want to skip supporting windows only because of an optional step, but I also prefer to keep that function as it allows users to perform end-to-end analysis in R if they wish to. What would be the best option for me for now?

I'm not sure how many people will endeavor to run that part of the icetea pipeline on their Windows laptop. What about separating the preprocessing and downstream exploratory stuff into two packages? A better strategy is to figure out why you are Suggests:'ing Rsubread, and find alternative cross-platform solutions. I would not hesitate to add your voice to mine in asking the Rsubread maintainer to make their package cross-platform compatible. While this requires considerable work, it would benefit the Bioconductor community in this and subsequent years.

Is there a way for me to instruct the build machine on bioc to use: _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_ = FALSE ??
