Dear Sir,

         I am trying to download Bioconductor on a Mac5- having
installed R -and using the 'Package Installer' I keep getting error
messages.
 Any help with  command codes to download Bioconductor packages (especially affy)
for Mac computer would be very much appreciated-

Hi Susan,
the complete (default set of packages of) bioc 1.5 is now available in 
binary form.
Can you please report us the errors you get and exactly what you do, 
your mac os x versio etc ?

Dear Stefano,
dear all
I have tried to get the complete bioc 1.5 in binary form from the R 
menu.
While it downloads and installs everything in my ~/Library/R/library
whenever invoked by, for example library(rama), I get an error that the 
package
is pre 2.0.0.
How do you force R downloading the right packages without recompiling 
them?
Many thanks

it seems that some packages have not been updated by my script. I've 
now forced the complete rebuilding of all the packages, I hope it would 
be ok in a couple of days (due to mirroring).
And you are right, rama is one of the packages built for 1.9.1 and 
never updated (gosh!)

I'll file a mail to this mailing list when the complete process is over.
