the when i run the second command

R CMD build /scratch/obadad/BSgenome.Oeuropaea.IOGC.v1./  it checks the DESCRIPTION file but then gives me this error .

The version is malformed because 1.0. isn't a version (you cannot end with a period). And the package name is malformed for the same reason. You might want to remove all the trailing periods, as they aren't necessary and may be messing things up.
