Hello! There seems to be a bug in the latest release of the package Biobase (1.3.22). The code uses a function "note", which used to be defined within previous releases of the package, but which is obviously missing in the latest release. This causes an error and loading of the package fails if there is no valid pdf-viewer installed (Unix command line...), as "note" is used to display messages if e.g. a pdf-viewer couldn't be loaded. Replacing "note" with "warning" helps for the moment.

If this is not the case for you, let me know - it certainly is for me: > library(Biobase) Welcome to Bioconductor Vignettes contain introductory material. To view, simply type: openVignette() For details on reading vignettes, see the openVignette help page.
