You can create a plain text file in the root directory of your package .BBSoptions with the line

  UnsupportedPlatform: win

Your package will not be available on Windows, losing about 1/2 your potential audience. A better strategy is to figure out why you are Suggests:'ing Rsubread, and find alternative cross-platform solutions.

I would not hesitate to add your voice to mine in asking the Rsubread maintainer to make their package cross-platform compatible. While this requires considerable work, it would benefit the Bioconductor community in this and subsequent years.

Hi All


My package is in review and the build is failing since a suggested package 
(Rsubread) is not available on windows. Is there a way for me to instruct the 
build machine on bioc to use: _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_ = FALSE ??



Best,

Vivek
