Hi all,
I ran into a problem with dependencies during package installation.
Here is an example that intends to reproduce the problem

https://github.com/vladpetyuk/toypack

Majority of the packages (in Imports/Depends/Suggests and their
Imports/Depends/Suggests) install just fine.
However there is a handful of packages ("DO.db", "GO.db",
"org.Ce.eg.db",
"org.Hs.eg.db" and "reactome.db") that are being skipped for not an
obvious
to me reason.
In this toy example there is no use of those skipped packages. So it
won't
results in any kind of error.  But in the real package their lack
results
in errors.

Thank you,
Vlad
