Hello, I see the following issue in R-devel since 'both' has become the default pkgType for binary platforms.
update.packages() fails when you set options(repos). Looks like it is trying to download a tgz file from the src/contrib section of a repository (on a mac). To reproduce this you need to have an older version of AnnotationDbi installed, which I accomplished by faking it, installing pkgKitten and then doing: library(pkgKitten) kitten("AnnotationDbi") Then exiting R and doing R CMD INSTALL AnnotationDbi. Here's the problem: > packageVersion("AnnotationDbi") [1] ‘1.0’ > options(repos=structure(c("http://bioconductor.org/packages/3.1/bioc", > "http://bioconductor.org/packages/3.1/data/annotation", + "http://bioconductor.org/packages/3.1/data/experiment", "http://bioconductor.org/packages/3.1/extra", + "http://cran.fhcrc.org"), .Names = c("BioCsoft", "BioCann", "BioCexp", + "BioCextra", "CRAN"))) > update.packages(oldPkgs="AnnotationDbi") AnnotationDbi : Version 1.0 installed in /Library/Frameworks/R.framework.develMav/Versions/3.2/Resources/library Version 1.29.17 available at http://bioconductor.org/packages/3.1/bioc Update (y/N/c)?
