Yes adding BiocManager to the suggest field of your DESCRIPTION will likely correct the ERROR

The checkSeqDb(�hg19�) function calls the BSgenome::available.genomes function which in turn calls �get_data_annotation_contrib_url<https://secure-web.cisco.com/1fvh4WUp6rrult1rI78RZ3xoBehNXKaBnvMRvwcC-pQ83McSrfbOrZ_m2FrP7UmTtEWuiJh8RPmRpvguEjef0aicUatFoq7xtHMczN4OlA5vN8WdKLeK7JJakkoSiDCQcl01EOyNp5IrMKU-Dl8Jv7muVtQEobg_3Ngw71nrLqqh-Dtl9ISJpe07zFK5_JvOoI1ze39ieR2-Y-xAnlArXl-i3ALcWSGCUojrcqL08w48xkU7_MZAv0ymeq2nXyN9V-iNtz7rFECcFxS3D4CC70IprYiexW0VoMLq0zHDoaINQD9JcsyIU8wLS4RdNGvS0/https%3A%2F%2Frdrr.io%2Fbioc%2FBSgenome%2Fsrc%2FR%2Futils.R>�. The method tries to access `BiocManager::repositories` function to find a certain url. So, it basically fails because BiocManager is not seen, not because it is used to install a dependency here. In this case, it would be okay add BiocManager to the suggests field of my package, is that right? Best, Bora From: Herv� Pag�s <hpages.on.git...@gmail.com> Date: Friday, 27.

This 'R CMD check' behavior is controlled by the _R_CHECK_SUGGESTS_ONLY_ behavior and is only enabled on our Linux builders for now. However, please note that the code in your examples, vignettes or unit tests should NOT install packages. I don't know what package exactly checkSeqDb('hg19') is trying to install but that is what should be listed in Suggests instead of BiocManager. That way it won't be reinstalled over and over again by 'R CMD check'. Best, H.
