Hej Dan!

You might get that question a lot in the next days, maverick is
pretty popular :-). Could you add a temporary check in Bioclite()
for the OS and report a more appropriate error message if it is
running OSX maverick? I bet this is going to save you some email
traffic ;-) Otherwise we can also take turn to answer them :-)

Hi David,

You need to use the Snow Leopard version of R instead of the
Mavericks version, see

https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioc-devel/2014-April/005497.html

for more information.

The new packages don't seem to be available.  This is a confusing
message since I do have an internet connection and
bioconductor,org
is available and up.
