Hi 

I'm trying the latest version of DESeq2 workflow, but have trouble loading "tximport", "tximportData", "pasilla" packages to begin with. 

Here is my error for installing "tximport". Error messages for other packages are the same.

Could anyone have any suggestion to fix the issue? 

Thank you in advance! 

I don't see an error. 

Have you tried seeing if tximport was installed:

library(tximport)
