Hi, I am trying to install Bioconductor on the latest version of R (2.6.0) and I get error messages (see below) about the repository. I am trying to install using the method described there : http://www.bioconductor.org/docs/install-howto.html Is there a problem with the repository at the moment? > source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") > biocLite() Running biocinstall version 2.1.8 with R version 2.6.0 Your version of R requires version 2.1 of Bioconductor.

Hi Olivier, It looks like there was some internet access problem to me. Can you open this links http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.1/bioc/src/contrib/PACKAGES If it works, can you try biocLite() again? Cheers, H.
