There are many changes to base R hence the switch from 3.6 to 4.0. I would highly suggest using R 4.0. There is a R-alpha version now available for all platforms with the R - 4.0 release schedule for later this month. Please use the R-alpha version .
on CRAN.r-project.org you should see a section Sources of R alpha and beta releases (daily snapshots, created only in time periods before a planned release) with links to R-alpha for linux. There is a link here to R-alpha for mac http://mac.r-project.org/ and one here for windows: https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/base/rpatched.html This should allow you to download the most stable R-4.0 alpha before the release at the end of the month. Hope this helps.

However, on the Bioconductor machines (both Linux and Window) a particular test fails. The feature that distinguish this particular test from all other (that passed without any problems) is the use of the ExpressionSet class from the Biobase package. Locally I am using the Biobase version 2.46.0. You can see the build output from Bioconductor here: http://bioconductor.org/spb_reports/dorothea_buildreport_20200407063358.html <http://bioconductor.org/spb_reports/dorothea_buildreport_20200407063358.html> Is it possible that this error is somehow related to the used R Version? Locally I am still using 3.6.2 but if I understand correctly the package is build and checked on Bioconductor machines with R version 4.0. So far I refrained from installing the development version of R4.0 as it crashed RStudio for a colleague of mine. Many thanks for your support.
