I attempted to run the getBioC.R script to install packages. Install downloaded first 2 packages, Biobase and reposTools, but halted with the following message: "Error in library(reposTools): There is no package called reposTools." Any suggestions as to what to do? Michael Gates

This is the second time today that someone has said this, but I can not replicate the problem here. Can you run a traceback() after the error for me? -J

I could not replicate the error neither. Did anyone else also have this problem lately? >X-Authentication-Warning: santiam.dfci.harvard.edu: jgentry owned process doing -bs >From: Jeff Gentry <jgentry@jimmy.harvard.edu> >To: Michael Gates <magates@u.washington.edu> >cc: bioconductor@stat.math.ethz.ch >Subject: Re: [BioC] Error message when running install script. >MIME-Version: 1.0 >X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-milter (http://amavis.org/) >X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-milter (http://amavis.org/) >X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-1.6 required=5.0 tests=IN_REP_TO,QUOTED_EMAIL_TEXT,SPAM_PHRASE_00_01, USER_AGENT_PINE,X_AUTH_WARNING version=2.43 >X-Spam-Level: >X-BeenThere: bioconductor@stat.math.ethz.ch >X-Mailman-Version: 2.0.13 >List-Help: <mailto:bioconductor- request@stat.math.ethz.ch?subject="help"> >List-Post: <mailto:bioconductor@stat.math.ethz.ch> >List-Subscribe: <http: www.stat.math.ethz.ch="" mailman="" listinfo="" bioconductor="">, <mailto:bioconductor-request@stat.math.ethz.ch?subject=subscribe> >List-Id: The Bioconductor Project Mailing List <bioconductor.stat.math.ethz.ch> >List-Unsubscribe: <http: www.stat.math.ethz.ch="" mailman="" listinfo="" bioconductor="">, <mailto:bioconductor-request@stat.math.ethz.ch?subject=unsubscribe> >List-Archive: <http: www.stat.math.ethz.ch="" pipermail="" bioconductor=""/> >Date: Fri, 20 Dec 2002 16:47:54 -0500 (EST) > >> I attempted to run the getBioC.R script to install packages.
