Hello, when using makeDataPackage to generate a data package I noticed that the description entry in the man .Rd file says "place holder 1". Is there a way to change this and insert a specific one for each package? Many thanks, James. # makeDataPackage example code library(Biobase) data(sample.ExpressionSet) ## package created in tempdir() s1 <- makeDataPackage(sample.ExpressionSet, author = "Foo Author", email = "foo@bar", packageName = "FooBarPkg", packageVersion = "1.0.0") file.show(file.path(s1$pkgdir, "man", "FooBarPkg.Rd")) # here is my sessionInfo() R version 2.7.0 (2008-04-22) i686-pc-linux-gnu locale: LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=en_US .UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=C;LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8;LC_N AME=C;LC_ADDRESS=C;LC_TELEPHONE=C;LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8;LC_IDENTI FICATION=C attached base packages: [1] tools stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods [8] base other attached packages: [1] Biobase_2.0.1 [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

There does not appear to be a way to do this; This has been fixed in the development version of R and Biobase (2.1.4) which should appear with biocLite after noon (PST) on Thursday.
