Hi, While trying to install RforMassSpectrometry I get the following error (BiocManager was installed as described here: https://rformassspectrometry.github.io/RforMassSpectrometry/articles/RforMassSpectrometry.html#installation).

Any help? Thx!

BiocManager::install("RforMassSpectrometry/RforMassSpectrometry") ........

BiocManager will only install package dependencies that are available on CRAN or Bioconductor. Other packages that are on github need to be installed explicitly

# depending on the ordering of dependencies the order may need to change
BiocManager::install("rformassspectrometry/MsCoreUtils", "rformassspectrometry/MsExperiment", "RforMassSpectrometry/Spectra", "RforMassSpectrometry/Features")
BiocManager::install("RforMassSpectrometry/RforMassSpectrometry")

The help installation page should be updated for non official CRAN/Bioconductor packages. https://rformassspectrometry.github.io/RforMassSpectrometry/articles/RforMassSpectrometry.html#installation

I have notified the maintainers of the installation page that they may want to update https://github.com/rformassspectrometry/RforMassSpectrometry/issues/5

Thank you for reporting the issue. This should be fixed now (at least, according to local tests using R patched and devel). Could you please try again and confirm. Otherwise, please follow up here or, if possible, on the GitHub issue to reduce noise.

Thank you both! I just tried running the general

BiocManager::install("RforMassSpectrometry/RforMassSpectrometry")

and it seems to be working fine.

Only at the very end I got this warning message:

Warning message: In file.copy(savedcopy, lib, recursive = TRUE) : problem copying D:\Users\beenfr\Documents\R\win-library\3.6\00LOCK\curl\libs\x64\curl.dll to D:\Users\beenfr\Documents\R\win-library\3.6\curl\libs\x64\curl.dll: Permission denied

But I can load the RforMassSpectrometry library without any issues.
