* Package name : r-bioc-annotationhub Version : 2.4.2 Upstream Author : Martin Morgan, Marc Carlson, Dan Tenenbaum, Sonali Arora * URL : http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/AnnotationHub.html * License : Artistic-2.0 Programming Lang: GNU R Description : GNU R client to access AnnotationHub resources This package provides a client for the Bioconductor AnnotationHub web resource. The AnnotationHub web resource provides a central location where genomic files (e.g., VCF, bed, wig) and other resources from standard locations (e.g., UCSC, Ensembl) can be discovered. The resource includes metadata about each resource, e.g., a textual description, tags, and date of modification. The client creates and manages a local cache of files retrieved by the user, helping with quick and reproducible access. Remark: This package belongs to a set of new dependencies to update BioConductor packages in Debian. It will be maintained by the Debian Med team at svn://anonscm.debian.org/debian-med/trunk/packages/R/r-bioc-annotationhub/trunk/
