Wonderful, thanks for pushing it forward! I did some more on it but then got sidetracked by grad school and kind of dropped the ball. There is one more thing though...
After splitting CRAN and BIOC packages up, I discovered that many of the BIOC ones require other Annotation or Experiment data packages. So I added those too. They're hosted on the same bioconductor servers but under different subdirectories. I added them as separate files because it was easier with my existing code, but hoped to integrate them into the same BIOC file and update the broken packages list before doing a pull request. Then I didn't get around to it. This is a working implementation (just missing the updated broken list) that shows the new subdirectories in default.nix around line 50: https://github.com/jefdaj/nixpkgs/tree/master/pkgs/development/r-modules Any chance that could make it into the release too?
