I cannot get bioimagetools package to install in R. I am using the latest version (3.5.1 as of this writing 2018SEP26). I updated from 3.5.0 because I thought that was the hangup. The hangup, however, seems to EBImage package, which is not available for R 3.5.1. 

What is the latest version of R for which EBImage is available? Is this, by extension, the latest version of R for which bioimagetools is available?

I can follow up with my installation code if needed, but it seems like this might be a short, known answer. 

thank you -

Bioconductor packages, and packages that depend on Bioconductor packages, should be installed using

source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("bioimagetools")

(this will change to BiocManager::install("bioimagetools") in the near future).
