[Bioc-devel] problem when building oligo on wilson2

Hi,

I'm looking for some insight on the source of the problem reported by  
'wilson2' when building oligo:

http://www.bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.5/bioc-LATEST/oligo/wilson2-buildsrc.html

This machine has R-devel r49067... The other machines have r49060 and  
r49021.

So, because the pkg builds just fine on other machines but wilson2, I  
thought that the source of the problem would be on changes between  
r49060 and r49067.

Looking at the log of R-devel for all these revisions, I don't see any  
change that would cause the error "'dimnames' applied to non-array" to  
come up.

I just installed the latest R-devel and I can't reproduce the problem.  
So, is it just a matter of waiting until R-devel is updated on the  
machines used to build the packages?

Thanks a lot,

b

Hi Benilton,
   It could be any one of a number of things, not necessarily the build 
of R (although that could be a factor).  Someone here will likely need 
to try to run this and see if it is reproducible from the command line 
and if so, to try and find the problem.  Alternatively you could check 
out that version of R and see if the problem is reproducible on a 
computer near you.

   best wishes

Benilton,
I pushed an early report of the builds today that don't include Windows 
because those machines haven't completed the build process yet. For 
today's report oligo isn't building on wilson2 (Linux), pitt (Mac OS X 
Tiger), pelham (Mac OSX Leopard).

http://www.bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.5/bioc-LATEST/oligo/pelham-buildsrc.html

because of the error

Error: processing vignette 'oligo.Rnw' failed with diagnostics:
 chunk 3 (label=crlmm)
Error in crlmm(fullFilenames, outputDir, verbose = FALSE) :
  could not find function "requireAnnotation"
Execution halted


This missing symbol could be masking the more subtler problem you 
mentioned, but at least the current error should be easy to correct.

Dear Robert and Patrick,

Thank you very much for your time.

Patrick, I just exposed the function, thanks for the heads up.

Robert, thanks for the hint. I'll get r49067 and try to reproduce the  
problem.

I got the revision 49067, but wasn't able to reproduce the problem on  
the machine I have access to... so I'll just wait for the next build  
and see what comes up.

Thank you very much,
