Hi list,

I was trying to install GEOsubmission and got the following error message, which was caused during the installation of a required package: affyio.  Another piece of information is that I was trying do this inside a "rocker/rstudio:3.5.0" docker image.  Not sure if that has anything to do with the error.

Thanks!

Tao
