Dear Lori,

I already foxed the issue in the devel branch which now gives a clean check:
 https://bioconductor.org/checkResults/3.8/bioc-LATEST/

The problema was due to a CRAN  dependency no more available since July 20, 
2018.

Would you recommend fixing the same issue also in the current release branch?
Or shall I leave it unchanged for consistency?

All the best
Francesco
