Excellent. Thanks for taking good care of your package :-) H.

I did have to update the citation commands in the text to go with the natbib standard, and meanwhile did some reformatting of the vignette overall.

I tried removing > all references to \verb and that doesnt seem to have done anything. A little bit of detective work indicates that the vignette was building fine on all platforms until commit 7ed2a00e This commit added 2 things to the rgsepd.Rnw vignette: (1) a new biblio entry and (2) a \verb paragraph with reference to the new biblio entry. Apparently, the new biblio entry is causing problems. It seems to trigger some bad interaction between knitr and biblatex that seems to be specific to the MacTeX version (mactex-20161009) that we use on our Mac builders. Remember that we're stuck with El Capitan on these builders so updating things there can be tricky. Anyway, the problem goes away if you use natbib (used by hundreds of Bioconductor packages) instead of biblatex (only used by a handful of Bioconductor packages). That is, if you replace: \usepackage[backend=bibtex]{biblatex} with \usepackage{natbib} and move \bibliography{references} to the line where you currently have \printbibliography (get rid of the \printbibliography directive) With this change, I can successfully 'R CMD build rgsepd' on merida2 (didn't try on celaya2 though).
