Hello,

I am working with affy arrays HTA 2.0. I want to annotatee using hta20sttranscriptcluster.db which works normally. I recently updated by R studio shell to 3.3.2 and I get the following after trying to install the hta20sttranscriptcluster.db:

> source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
Bioconductor version 3.4 (BiocInstaller 1.24.0), ?biocLite for help
> biocLite("hta20sttranscriptcluster.db")
BioC_mirror: https://bioconductor.org
Using Bioconductor 3.4 (BiocInstaller 1.24.0), R 3.3.2 (2016-10-31).
Installing package(s) ‘hta20sttranscriptcluster.db’
Old packages: 'Matrix', 'nlme'
Update all/some/none? [a/s/n]: 
n
Warning message:
package ‘hta20sttranscriptcluster.db’ is not available (for R version 3.3.2) 

Any ideas what the problem can be and how it can be solved would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ricardo

The HTA arrays don't have ST in their names, so when I built them for this release I removed that. The package you are looking for is the hta20transcriptcluster.db package:
