Dear Friends,

I have been having considerable difficulty doing various package related bioconductor actions. Here is my system specifications:

======================================================================= macOS Monterey Version: 12.3 (21E230)

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) Memory: 16 GB 1867 MHz DDR3

RStudio 2021.09.0 Build 351

R version 4.1.2 (2021-11-01) -- "Bird Hippie" Copyright (C) 2021 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing

Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin17.0 (64-bit)

While the problem I have seems to be related to similar ones reported here, I'm not sure what the problem is. Very similar error messages are displayed when I try to do different actions within Bioconductor. Below are the error messages that I get when I perform the following actions ...

    • BiocManager::install()
    • Update all/some/none? [a/s/n]:
    • BiocManager::valid() # session info included
    • BiocManager::install("webchem", update = TRUE, ask = FALSE)
    • BiocManager::install("metaboliteIDmapping")

The problems seem to center around the Bioconductor repositories as it appears to be replacing the standard ones with a regular CRAN repository.

When I try to install packages, BC always declares that "package ‘XXXXX’ is available as a source package but not as a binary", but I can't compile the package successfully through the terminal. I try to install in the standard BC way (as below) or via the RStudio install packages feature.

BC always tries to update almost the same packages nearly every time I take an action whether I say ok to update or not.

Please advise.

Thanks, Jose

How did you install R?

Check Problem loading R packages on MacBook Pro, tl;dr, did you accidentally install R for the newer Mac M1 machines rather than the Intel one? As a recommendation, you already have an error under # 1. so rather than posting all these compilation logs you should focus on this and try to resolve it. Everything downstream is often a consequence of the toplevel error. Be sure to have R installed correctly and try again. There are precompiled binaries for most packages on Intel Mac so it should not bother with compilation most of the time while for M1 Macs it (afaik) always compiles due to lack of binaries.

Hi ATpoint,

Thanks for your response. While I was pretty sure I didn't install R incorrectly (because I use the updateR package, so I don't make the choice of what to click), I checked my version information. This is what I found...

If I am not mistaken, the following platform information is relevant..

  • x86_64-apple-darwin17.0: macOS High Sierra. ---> Not M1
  • aarch64-apple-darwin20: macOS Big Sur on arm64.---> M1

Consequently, since my version information corresponds with the "Not M1" platform, I installed the correct version of R on my MacBook Pro. Therefore, I return to my original problem of Bioconductor package installations not working.

Folks have any ideas on what is wrong and how its fixed?

Thanks in advance...Jose

Hi Jose, jose

AFAICT, we don't provide binaries for annotation packages therefore something like https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.13/data/annotation/bin/macosx/contrib/4.1 looks quite odd.

These issues may stem from version mismatches due to version mixing (using the setRepositories() function) and possible installation issues with the latest MacOs 12.3.

Our builders are running macOS 10.14.6 Mojave where these packages are tested. From personal experience, OS updates on Mac are a pain to configure. Thankfully, I don't have a Mac ;)

My recommendations are:

  • Consider installing the latest R version 4.1.3 and make sure you have the right one installed (the Intel version binary)
  • Do not use setRepositories() (unless you know what you're doing; in this case, Bioc 3.13 is quite old now and would not help)
  • Clean out your directory where you've installed mixed versions of packages. The easiest way to do this is to remove all the packages and start anew.

Please only use BiocManager::install to install packages that are appropriate to your R version.

Best regards,

Marcel

Ah Marcel!

Yes, indeed I have used setRepositories() in trying to install bioconductor packages! Given Monterey's newness, that would be a likely suspect as well.

I will indeed install the latest R version. Would there be any problem with my using the updateR package to do the update? I've used it before without any issues.

As for cleaning out the directory with mixed versions of packages...Yikes!

I will indeed ONLY use BiocManager::install from this point forward!

Thank you so much! Jose

I recommend using the Mac binaries at https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/ to update R.

That's what the Core team uses for the builders. We have not used updateR.

Best regards, Marcel
