Can you tell me a little more? Where is that function
coming from? URL?
It's in the "Biobase" R package. It may be that it's
incorrect to put it into the "r-bioc-repostools" package,
but that was my best guess, since it appears to be the only
BioC package in Debian.
Generally, I lean towards keeping things as they are at
BioC. So I am not sure we even need a reposTools package
as there is now the 'GetBioCLite' mechanism etc.
This a point where we disagree. I find the idea of mixing
in other package systems on top of Debian's wrong. But it's
you who're maintaining the package, so I shouldn't complain
(too much, anyway ;).
This was needed once in the context of the 'debianization'
effort for CRAN/BioC that is on Alioth (and somewhat
stalled, fresh help always welcome if that interest you
...)
Unfortunatly my interest in R is very limited. I only use
it when I _really_ have to. So my motivation for doing the
work to debianize R packages is rather limited.
Anyway: I managed to get the function in through the
installation script in R, so you're welcome to close this
bug report again.
