Hi Yinming, First - Like any package that gets added to Bioconductor, FEM is first added to the *devel* version of BioC, which happens to be BioC 3.0. To install and use packages from BioC 3.0, you need to run R 3.1.*. That's because BioC 3.0 (including the FEM package) was designed and tested to be used with R 3.1.*. Second - BioC 3.0 is still the *devel* version of Bioconductor (until next Tuesday, then it will be released and become the *release* version of Bioconductor). For this reason you need to call useDevel() before you try to install packages with biocLite(). That's a one time switch i.e. you don't need to do it again every time you use biocLite(). Note that if you wait until BioC 3.0 is released, you won't need to do the useDevel() step at all. Hope this helps, H.

Dear All, I have a package, FEM, which is published few days ago. The link is :http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/html/FEM.html But when I try to install it, source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") biocLite("FEM") R reports: package ??FEM?? is not available (for R version 3.0.2). So How can I resolve this problem. I also noted that "Bioconductor version: Development (3.0)" What does this mean? Thanks very much.
