Dear all,

sorry if double posting this. I sent it two days ago using a
different
email not registered at bioc-devel and it seems (as for the archives)
it has not reached destination.

FYI, it seems the OSX build R 3.1.0 beta has split into snowleopard
and mavericks builds:

http://r.research.att.com

When installing the later and trying to install Bioconductor I get
the
following:

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
Warning: unable to access index for repository
http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc/bin/macosx/mavericks/contrib/3.1

   package 'BiocInstaller' is available as a source package but not
   as a binary

'biocLite.R' failed to install 'BiocInstaller', use
  'install.packages("BiocInstaller",
  repos="http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc")'
Warning message:
package 'BiocInstaller' is not available (for R version 3.1.0 beta)

then did the following:

install.packages("BiocInstaller",
+
  repos="http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc",type="source")
trying URL
'http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc/src/contrib/BiocInstaller_1.13.3.tar.gz'

Bioconductor version 2.14 (BiocInstaller 1.13.3), ?biocLite for help

The downloaded source packages are in
'/private/var/folders/dm/96krztk175d19vx9rcsgd2qc0000gn/T/RtmpMt3iRo/downloaded_packages'

and after that did:

biocLite()
Error: 'no packages in repository (no internet connection?)' while
trying
  http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc

which failed, presumably  because the new repository structure is not
yet supported?

Yes, it's not yet supported. We just ordered some Mavericks machines yesterday which we'll use to build BioC against the new R binary for Mavericks. We'll announce on the Bioconductor and Bioc-devel mailing lists when these builds are ready.

Until then, you can run the R binary built on Snow Leopard. It will work fine on Mavericks and you'll be able to download binary BioC packages.

Thank you. Also saw your other email sent to the list. What is the
advantage then of having a mavericks build? I guess the problem is
that Xcode 5 builds are not backward compatible.
this did not work either:

biocLite(type="source")

That's puzzling. What about installing an individual package from source with biocLite()?
Did not work either.
biocLite("Biobase",type="source")
Error: 'no packages in repository (no internet connection?)' while trying
  http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc

here include the output of traceback:
traceback()
11: stop(.msg(...), call. = call.)
10: .stop("'%s' while trying %s", conditionMessage(err), repos, call. = FALSE)
9: value[[3L]](cond)
8: tryCatchOne(expr, names, parentenv, handlers[[1L]])
7: tryCatchList(expr, classes, parentenv, handlers)
6: tryCatch({
       .contribUrl(repos)
   }, error = function(err) {
       version <- getRversion()
       currentVersion <- sprintf("%d.%d", version$major, version$minor)
       lowerVersion <- .lowerRVersionString(version)
       oldRepos <- sub(currentVersion, lowerVersion, repos)
       if (oldRepos == repos)
           .stop("'%s' while trying %s", conditionMessage(err),
               repos, call. = FALSE)
       .message("'%s' while trying %s, trying %s", conditionMessage(err),
           repos, oldRepos)
       .contribUrl(oldRepos)
   })
5: withCallingHandlers(expr, warning = function(w)
invokeRestart("muffleWarning"))
4: suppressWarnings(tryCatch({
       .contribUrl(repos)
   }, error = function(err) {
       version <- getRversion()
       currentVersion <- sprintf("%d.%d", version$major, version$minor)
       lowerVersion <- .lowerRVersionString(version)
       oldRepos <- sub(currentVersion, lowerVersion, repos)
       if (oldRepos == repos)
           .stop("'%s' while trying %s", conditionMessage(err),
               repos, call. = FALSE)
       .message("'%s' while trying %s, trying %s", conditionMessage(err),
           repos, oldRepos)
       .contribUrl(oldRepos)
   }))
3: .getContribUrl(biocVersion())
2: bioconductorPackageIsCurrent()
1: biocLite("Biobase", type = "source")

this works (as it did with BiocInstaller)

install.packages("Biobase",repos="http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.14/bioc",type="source")

Best,
