Hi all, I get a weird error. After R (4.0.5) and Rstudio fresh install on macos Sierra I reinstalled Bioconductor and then minfi and ChAMP packages for DNA methylation analysis. Note, I already had the packages working on the same mac with previous R versions, this was just meant to be an update, and currently have them working on my pc under R 4.0.4. Now when I load minfi or ChAMP I get an error message concerning GenomeInfoDb and GenomeInfoDbData. So I tried to install GenomeInfoDbData separately but the installation had a non-zero exit status. Any idea?

This seems like it could be a system configuration issue. Would something like this thread help for installing the needed system dependency:

The thread you suggested helped me consider it could be a macos system issue, so I tried upgrading my system and solved my problem. Thanks!

Looks like some Xcode related issue or something like that. But why would you install packages from source on a Mac? I don't know how you installed R but if you did this _the proper way_ (i.e. by using the official distribution from https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/), install.packages() and BiocManager::install() should install Mac binaries by default. Doing so tends to spare people a lot of headache. It's also _much_ faster!

Cheers,

H.

Well, it looks like it was a macos system issue. I upgraded macos Sierra to High Sierra and could install the minfi packages (including GenomeInfoDb and GenomeInfoDbData w/o problems. Thanks anyway for your suggestions!
