[Bioc-devel] Should GenomicFeatures really depend pn RMySQL ? Is it time to migrate to RMariaDB ?
Yep, moving RMySQL to Suggests makes sense. Will do. Also migrating to RMariaDB is on the TODO list. Note that the current problem of RMySQL being hard to install on Mac is only because CRAN doesn't provide an RMySQL binary for R 3.5 yet: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RMySQL/index.html For the record, we had a similar situation one year ago when R 3.4 was in development: CRAN started to build package binaries for Mac a few weeks only before the release of R 3.4.0. Not ideal :-/ H.

Out of curiosity, is MariaDB easier to install on your system? Its system dependencies are described at https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__CRAN.R-2Dproject.org_package-3DRMariaDB&d=DwICAg&c=eRAMFD45gAfqt84VtBcfhQ&r=BK7q3XeAvimeWdGbWY_wJYbW0WYiZvSXAJJKaaPhzWA&m=fU7GJM0vRA454YjFLP8edDtDgyvICfjQmxPlT81V6vs&s=ENePjXHv_uoxwPiSLsoj0K0M4yAzHXPCDLsnTpoURJ8&e= FWIW MySQL is a relatively recent addition as a dependency to GenomicFeatures; it enables `makeTxDbFromEnsembl()`, which is probably a much more stable solution than `makeTxDbFromBiomart()`. On the other had Johannes does an excellent job on the ensembldb packages, so perhaps this code could really be conditional with the RMySQL dependency moved to Suggests: Martin
