Hi,

Installing from binaries on Windows:

  > install.packages("multtest")
  Warning: dependency 'Biobase' is not available
trying URL 'http://cran.fhcrc.org/bin/windows/contrib/2.12/multtest_2.6.0.zip'
  Content type 'application/zip' length 1645590 bytes (1.6 Mb)
  opened URL
  downloaded 1.6 Mb

  package 'multtest' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked

  The downloaded packages are in

C:\Users\biocbuild2\AppData\Local\Temp\2\RtmpPzRqzb\downloaded_packages

Note the warning that a dependency is missing. But still the package
got installed even though it won't be loadable.

Now installing from source on Windows:

  > install.packages("multtest", type="source")
  Warning: dependency 'Biobase' is not available
  trying URL 'http://cran.fhcrc.org/src/contrib/multtest_2.6.0.tar.gz'
  Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 1457444 bytes (1.4 Mb)
  opened URL
  downloaded 1.4 Mb

  ERROR: dependency 'Biobase' is not available for package 'multtest'
  * removing 'D:/biocbld/bbs-2.7-bioc/R/library/multtest'

  The downloaded packages are in

'C:\Users\biocbuild2\AppData\Local\Temp\2\RtmpPzRqzb\downloaded_packages'
  Warning message:
  In install.packages("multtest", type = "source") :
    installation of package 'multtest' had non-zero exit status

Note the warning *and* ERROR.

Is this the intended behavior of install.packages() when installing
from binaries?

Thanks,
H.

PS: Sorry I don't have access to an R-2.13 installation where I can
test this at the moment.
