Hello everybody,

 

I'm quite new to both Linux and R but would like to use both for analysis of RNA-Seq data.

I desperately would like to install R package DESeq2 but always get a error message whatever the way i try to install it :

I also tried to install the package via the package menu but I got this :

>  install.packages("DESeq2")

Installing package into ‘/home/rwillamme/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified)

Warning in install.packages :  package ‘DESeq2’ is not available (for R version 3.3.2)

 

Finally i downloaded the package archive file (.tar.gz) and tried once again but without success :

> install.packages("~/Downloads/DESeq2_1.14.1.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type = "source")
Installing package into ‘/home/rwillamme/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified)

I tried to solve it myself by checking the already existing posts, and made 

$ sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev

And got this for an answer :

sudo: unable to resolve host gene-remi
[sudo] password for rwillamme:

Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.

But it didn't help...

Any help would be sooo welcome!

Thanks already!

Solve the first problem -- RCurl -- first. You're on the right track with the system dependency; you'll also need, e.g.,

$ sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

and then

> biocLite("RCurl")

Done, thanks!


It looks OK both for the terminal and R commands.

I however have that "not writeable" at the end :

(...)

installing to /home/rwillamme/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3/RCurl/libs

** R
** data
** inst
** preparing package for lazy loading
** help
*** installing help indices
** building package indices
** testing if installed package can be loaded
* DONE (RCurl)

The downloaded source packages are in    ‘/tmp/RtmpRxerxe/downloaded_packages’
installation path not writeable, unable to update packages: survival

Should I go on with the next step ("annotate")? And if so, how?

Not writeable means that the library (directory) where survival was installed is not owned by the account running biocLite(). Probably this means that 'recommended' packages were installed using an administrator account. You could (a) ignore it; (b) run R and update survival under an administrator account (but then exit R and return to your normal user account); or (c) re-install R without recommended packages as administrator, then install recommended packages as a regular user. (a) would be a reasonable short term solution, (c) the best long-term solution. (b) would mostly perpetuate a confusing situation, leading eventually to (a) or (c).

Yes, you could try annotation, biocLite("annotate"), but likely you can now jump to biocLite("DESeq2").

Thanks a lot! I directly jumped to biocLite("DESeq2") and it worked.

 

Looking forward to analyzing my data and keeping on discovering bioinformatics world!

 

NB : I will go for option (a) for the moment since i'm not an expert. As long as it works, that's fine for me..
