[Bioc-devel] regarding imports github R packages, in new R package's description file

This mailing list is for Bioconductor package development and Bioconductor
submissions not CRAN.

Bioconductor only allows dependencies from CRAN or Bioconductor and does
not allow github only repositories.

If you indeed meant to submit to CRAN you should check with CRAN's
submission policies on what they allow:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html

package's description file

I want to build a new package to submit on CRAN, but my package has
two dependencies harmony and iCTC which are available only on github.
So now I can import these dependencies in description files.
Imports:
    BiocManager,
    caret,
    klaR,
    randomForest,
    gbm,
    devtools,
    harmony,
    iCTC
I did as shown above but I got an error,
checking package dependencies ... ERROR
Packages required but not available: 'harmony', 'iCTC'
How can I resolve the error?
*Thanks and Regards*
