When I try to read a Bamfiel and try to use "Rsamtools" function, then R returns the messagings below.

"Warning in install.packages : package ‘Rsamtools’ is not available (for R version 4.0.2)".

This R version is the latest version. Is there anything else we can do?

Thank you very much for the help!

What command are you using to install Rsamtools? It's hard for people to give advice if you don't show what you've done to get to the error message.

Thank you very much for the answers! After using this (BiocManager::install("Rsamtools")), it worked!

Apology for not having provided the commands, it was my first time to use this forum. Now I got to know how to use it. Thank you very much for the insights!

You seem to be using install.packages for installation. Rsamtools is a Bioconductor package, therefore use BiocManager::install("Rsamtools") after installing Bioconductor as described: https://bioconductor.org/install/

I had the same problem (R 4.2.0) I used BiocManager::install("Rsamtools", force = TRUE)

And it is working fine

R 4.4.x here. adding force=TRUE to BiocManager::install("Rsamtools", ask=FALSE, update=FALSE, force=TRUE) fixed the problem.
