Dear all;

I recently upgraded my R to version 3.2.0, and since then I can't install the package "GenomicFeatures". I get the following warning:

Warning in install.packages :
  package ‘GenomicFeatures’ is not available (for R version 3.2.0)

Neither of I use install.packages("GenomicFeatures"), nor with biocLite("GenomicFeatures"). And therefore, I can't load the package to do my analyses.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to overcome this?

Thank you very much.

J.

I am having the same problem, with a few packages of Bioconductor. GenomicFeature is one of them, the following the full error message:
