[R-pkg-devel] Confusion over CRAN build error for package Brundle

Forgive me for possibly being naive. I have run the current version of my package, Brundle, through the test systems on win-builder, and the development and stable tests both pass. The package builds on my desktop (MacOS) still runs fine. Yet for the last two days I the package has caused warnings from CRAN. https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_Brundle.html From the logs it appears to me that several of the errors are due missing BioConductor package. e.g. Packages required but not available: ?DiffBind? ?Rsamtools? ?DESeq2? Am I missing something obvious? I understood that the test environment included these packages.
The problem with missing BioC dependencies can be ignored as well as the R-devel Windows error. THe latter will be auto-resolved, the BioC stuff depends on the fact that CRAN upgraded to BioC 3.6 which is in development and will be released before R-devel, hence we check against it, but it is rather instable and sometimes we cannot intsall the BioC packagess yet.
