I'm trying to install diffHic in my conda env.

OS centos 6.10 conda v4.7.11 r 3.6.0

I've run: conda create -y -n R-3.6.0 -c conda-forge r-base=3.6.0 conda activate R-3.6.0 conda install -c r r-devtools  conda install -c bioconda bioconductor-diffhic

library(diffHic) returns:

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘diffHic’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]): namespace ‘blob’ 1.1.1 is being loaded, but >= 1.2.0 is required

I don't see a linux version of blob > 1.1.1

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Seems like a conda problem to me. CRAN indicates that blob 1.2.0 is available:
