Hi Everyone!
I am trying to install R Package "VariantAnnotation". I entered commands:

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
 biocLite("VariantAnnotation")


But i am getting the following errors,

the first error message is
  "configuration failed for package RCurl"
immediately before that it said
  "Cannot find curl-config".

It would appear that you don't have curl installed on your computer.
Unfortunately, I cannot help you with that. But you might look at the
documentation for RCurl (available from CRAN) to start trying to find
where to get curl.
