Yes, download will not be possible due to licensing. But what about providing Amazon AWS Windows instances (or whatever provider) with BioC installed ? I'd then log into AWS with my own credentials, pay ~20c per hour (IIRC that includes the windows license), connect via RDP or to an rstudio server running on that instance, and fix stuff. Bonus points if the chosen provider also offers MacOS.

Re: [Bioc-devel] Custom build of packages
1. To Ruiz: right now there are tons of changes happening all the time because we are close to a release. So what you're asking is much harder than what you think it is. Basically, it'll not happen. What you first and foremost need to do, is to setup a build on your local machine (which is seems you have done). That will help you with many, many problems - but not problems which are package specific. 2. To others: I do agree that having preconfigured VMs for specific platforms would be very worthwhile, especially for Windows, as we have just seen with mzR. But it would also take effort and there may be licensing issues related to having an OS ready for download (especially on Windows). I am not up to date on the docker efforts, perhaps that is the way to go (but I don't know if that'll help us on Windows). Perhaps having a detailed discussion with potential solutions will help us understand to what extend it is possible and how much effort it requires.

For the latter, you can use docker run -ti bioconductor/devel_base bash but I think even that is a slightly different setup compared to the official build animals.

Re: [Bioc-devel] Custom build of packages
Thanks Martin for your quick reply.
I really appreciate your comments to help me improve my package. As you comment
in the first lines, I have already downloaded the devel version of R and Bioc.
This is how I found out the changes in the dependencies of rowRanges function.
Regarding the other point, I had absolutely no idea of how to solve it and now
I will correct it. Hopefully, the package will have no problems in the next
build.
Anyway, my previous suggestions were ideas that I thought could be interesting
not only for me but for other developers, so I thought it was interesting to
share them with the whole community. Surely due to my lack of knowledge of
computer science, I don't still see why a build similar to what is done for non
accepted packages cannot be done in devel or release branches, only for those
packages with changes. My idea is not changing the general nightly build but to
add a complementary system to help solving problems more efficiently.
Bests,
Carlos Ruiz

I guess asking on the devel mailing list rather than sending mail to a
particular individual means that you get the benefit of whatever global wisdom
is available.
All packages are built nightly, in both release and devel, and across three
architectures. The build system is more complicated than building individual
packages -- reverse dependencies need to be built, too, and successful builds
synchronized with public repositories -- so the nightly builds will not change
in the near future.
The problem is likely that your local configuration is using the current
version of R and Bioconductor, whereas as a developer you should be using the
version of R and Bioconductor used in the 'devel' branch. The version of R in
use on the build machines is given at the top of the build page
http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/3.3/bioc-LATEST/index.html
so R-3.3.0-beta, available from cran.r-project.org. Once you have the correct
version of R installed, then
source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R";)
BiocInstaller::useDevel()
sets you up to install bioc devel packages (the second step is not always
necessary, depending on the version of R and Bioconductor; it is not necessary
in the current 'devel', so the error -- 'devel' version already in use -- can
be ignored). See a variant of these instructions at
http://bioconductor.org/developers/how-to/useDevel/. The specific commands used
for building are given in each section of the build report, so the specific
build command (editing paths, of course) can also be invoked.
I guess you are talking about MultiDataSet, with the build report at
http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/3.3/bioc-LATEST/MultiDataSet/zin2-buildsrc.html
The error

I see from SVN that you have discovered this, too.

and you could either forgo the accents or declare the encoding, probably by
adding the tag

People will also point to travis for use with github, but for me this
introduces two tools that play only sort-of ok with the Bioconductor build
infrastructure (trying to bridge git via github with svn in particular seems to
cause problems that can be very tedious and time consuming to solve).

I am wondering if it could be possible for developers to generate a build

Are any of these options feasible?
