HI,
I'm helping someone install the affycoretools package, but there
seems to be a problem getting RCurl that's needed for biomaRt and
hence affycoretools. Here's what was done and the sessionInfo():
I just uninstalled everything and re-installed R and Bioconductor
packages using
> source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
> biocLite()
After that I installed afyycoretools by:
> biocLite("affycoretools")
It gave the following message:
> biocLite("affycoretools")
Running biocinstall version 1.9.9 with R version 2.4.1
Your version of R requires version 1.9 of Bioconductor.
trying URL

updating HTML package descriptions
It seems the installation is successful.
However, when I tried to load affycoretools by:
>library(affycoretools)
It gave the fowllowings:
> library(affycoretools)
