We are encouraged to add dependence to the version of R that is used by the devel branch of Bioconductor, e.g. R version 4.1. This means developing using a version of R that is not released yet. Users downloading our package from Github get the following error message. Do we revert to the current R version after the package is out of the development stage? Or are we supposed to leave the dependence on the devel version of R? Your github repo can have branches that address the different R versions and you can use the ref= parameter of install_github to get the appropriate one. There are other approaches and others will surely provide additional guidance. > install_github("https://github.com/hendriau/Summix.git") Installing package into �C:/Users/Gregory/Documents/R/win-library/4.0� (as �lib� is unspecified) ERROR: this R is version 4.0.3, package 'Summix' requires R >= 4.1 Error: Failed to install 'Summix' from GitHub: (converted from warning) installation of package �C:/Users/Gregory/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpMTpKWs/file3ce813c62fbf/Summix_0.99.9.tar.gz� had non-zero exit status Thank you, Greg [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ Bioc-devel@r-project.org<mailto:Bioc-devel@r-project.org> mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioc-devel The information in this e-mail is intended only for the ...{{dropped:14}}
