Actually, getBioC and biocLite are fairly straight forward wrappers to install.packages. They pass '...' arguments to install.packages and so Anna's use of installWithVers is valid and expected to work. And for me it does. Anna, can you try the following: rep = "http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.0/bioc" install.packages("Biobase", repos=rep, installWithVers=TRUE) I would also be curious to understand your motivation for wanting installWithVers. BioC packages are developed for a particular R release and in general I would not expect BioC packages developed older R's to work with current R's. + seth -- Seth Falcon | Computational Biology | Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center http://bioconductor.org ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
