Dear Christopher better not to take such discussions off the list. The best thing to do is a use a current R-devel (candidate for R 3.1) from http://cran.r-project.org (see "Sources of R alpha and beta releases?), with that biocLite will automagically also go for the development versions of the Bioconductor packages. I am not sure if this is best practice (and Martin or other Seattelites might smack my fingers), another option is biocLite("DEXSeq", siteRepos="http://bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc") on your existing R 3.0.x, but you need to learn to know what you?re doing here, and you might also have to similarly update other packages on which DEXSeq depends.

The most recent version of DEXSeq is here: http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/html/DEXSeq.html right now it is 1.9.5. so best if you could test with that. I?m afraid the .csv you wanted to attach has not made it to the list (see http://www.bioconductor.org/help/mailing-list/posting-guide the section on attachments).
