Hi Diana,
I'm reasonably sure that all your problems are all to do with your
first
error message. The geneLenDataBase package Namespace file imports
from
various packages, such as rtracklayer, which the first error seems to
indicate aren't being installed. Have you been able to get other
bioconductor packages to install with biocLite?
Anyway, your first error message indicates that the installer can't
find
any of the core dependencies at the repository "
http://cran.hostingzero.com/bin/macosx/leopard/contrib/2.15", which
seems
to be resulting in none of the needed dependencies being installed
(not
just geneLenDataBase). The first thing I'd try is run
chooseBioCmirror()
and chooseCRANmirror(), after
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
and choose a different mirror and see if that solves your problem.
I've
cc'ed the bioconductor mailing list in case others have encountered
your
problem and know of a solution.
Cheers,
Matt
