Subject: [Bioc-devel] Changing the name of a package

I have a package on the development build called riboSeq; my
biological
collaborators have since informed me that this name might cause
confusion as this is also the standard name for particular sequencing
techniques. Is it possible to easily change the name of this package?

This should not be a problem, since your package has not yet undergone a release. Let me know what you want the new name to be and I will rename the directory in svn and make sure that your svn permissions apply to that new directory. Then you'll want to go through the package and change its name throughout, most importantly in the Package: field of the DESCRIPTION file.

Dan
Best regards,

Tom Hardcastle

Hi Dan,

Could you rename it to riboSeqR, please?

Hi Dan,

OK, I've done this. I also changed the DESCRIPTION file so that riboSeqR is the value of the Package: field.

You should go through the remainder of the package and change the package name where appropriate.

Dan
Thanks,

Tom

Hi Dan,

This seems to have changed the name of the package in the subversion 
repository, and I can see the build reports - but the html page is still 
http://bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/html/riboSeq.html with the 
old versions on it, and biocLite won't install riboSeqR if I give it the 
devel repository. Is there something else I need to do to fix this?

Thanks,

Tom

The renamed package is failing check:

http://www.bioconductor.org/checkResults/devel/bioc-LATEST/riboSeqR/zin1-checksrc.html

If you fix that, it should propagate.

Dan
