Hi,

I'm writing just to ask if someone knows the latest version of R compatible with BSgenome.

When I try to install the latest available version of R, version 3.3.1, i get:

package ‘BSgenome’ is not available (for R version 3.3.1)

(the same with GenomicFeatures, and probably related genome manipulation packages)

Should I install 3.2.5 or is it compatible with R version 3.3.0?

Regards,

pj

This is R's way of saying that you're trying to install a version of BSgenome (and other packages) into a version of R for which they were not designed. Probably you updated R and copied, implicitly or explicitly, your old library to your new installation.

Try removing BiocInstaller as described here, and then re-installing using

source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("BSgenome")
