Dear members of the geomorph R package Development Team,

After posting my complaints about the current problems in the geomorph R
package I have just stumbled upon, I have been able to at least find a
workaround to the annoying message about the missing "Biostrings" package.

I found out that "Biostrings" is part of the huge "Bioconductor" project
which aims to develop a large set of tools for bioinformatics. Following
the directions here (
https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/Biostrings.html) I have
been able to install the required library (plus several other packages of
ehich Biostrings depends) and afterwards could re-install version 2.15 of
geomorph. Now everything works as before!

But this is a makeshift solution. I have no idea why even previous versions
of geomorph are now requiring "Biostrings" (which are part of Bioconductor,
that I have never had in my R installation). Furthermore, the problem with
the scaling of landmark coordinates in the current version of geomorph
still stands and should be properly treated by offering an option to keep
the 'old' mode in the digitize2d function.

Hope this helps.

With best regards,
