I am working on getting a package ready for Bioconductor called motifbreakR.

http://bioconductor.org/spb_reports/motifbreakR_0.99.7_buildreport_20150818123558.html#moscato1_buildsrc_anchor

This is the build report. My package has as part of it?s plotting function, the necessity of producing a temporary file that is read back in. This is likely where the issue lies, but I?m not entirely sure about the build environment, and where exactly the permissions issue lies. I am able produce the package on a local windows install; this includes the generation of the vignette during the build.

Thanks for looking at this.

Often these kind of permission issues on windows have to do with using parallel resources and not cleaning up properly. It sometimes doesn't matter on other OSes, but windows is particular about it. For example, if you start a socket cluster, you must close it when you are done using it.
