Dear Xu, While you, with your ssh key, keep pushing to the git.bioconductor.org it doesn't matter where else is stored. To move a repository within github you need to follow this tutorial: https://help.github.com/articles...

Dear all, I am currently working with the spatstat package with 3D samples. I am trying to evaluate a non analytical function over the window that encloses the sample and I need to know which is the fastest way of...

Hi, I have been looking at the stats of Bioconductor, and I would like to know more about how are they calculated. Do these stats account for the mirror sites? Are there any stats of the usage of mirrors? I...

Hi Colin, I'm surprised this wasn't captured by the url checker on CRAN. Are you suggesting a new check on package descriptions for the urls present? In that case I guess it could be part of the standard...

Hi, Recently I learned thanks to Martin Morgan that there are some files with the Date/Publication fields for Bioconductor packages: https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.7/bioc/VIEWS. I'm trying to reconstruct which packages from CRAN and Biocondctor...

Dear bioconductor core, The development version of my package hosted in Github cannot be build. It seems that another package is loaded when it shouldn't and masks the functions that are used in the vignette. (In case anyone wants...

Dear Jean-Philippe, There are some examples on the mailing list how this has gone in the past. For example this one: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioc-devel/2021-May/018105.html Usually the current maintainer asks for it...

Hi all, This change is documented on the man page so I think it is intentional. >From https://search.r-project.org/R/refmans/base/html/sets.html: For union, a vector of a common mode. For intersect, a vector...

Hi Ben, I'm not sure how you changed the locales, but this seems to be related to a bug already reported: When changing the language of R the messages are cached and are not translated again [1] (this is...

Dear package developers, I was reading section 2.5 Cross-references of Writing R Extensions and I found the following sentence. The last sentence of the section [1] is: > Packages referred to by these ?other forms? should be declared in...

Hi Aritra, It would be helpful if we can explore the package source code. It helps to provide a more accurate answer. But you will find some other cases on the archive of the mailing list with similar messages. The...

The reasons that CRAN has for this (from: https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES.in) are: X-CRAN-History: Archived on 2023-08-19 for policy violation. Downloading on installation from github. Unarchived on 2023-08-30. X...

Hi, Are you referring to your package formods? I see it was released the same Friday 17 and it is already on CRAN. If this is not the package, it might be on the backlog of packages submitted to CRAN...

Hi all, Some time ago, there was a question[1] about "how long is the average waiting time when submitting a new package ("newbies") until you get a manual reply or it's on CRAN, submitting an update with all...

Hi all, I was trying to download the source code of a package using the versioned urls (https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=%s&version=%s). I used packageVersion to get the version number but it failed because it uses...

Hi Dewey, Currently there are several packages on a subfolder for human inspection. I don't think you can do anything else: sending this email might help drawing attention from your reviewer to your package. There might be some issues...

Dear Bioconductor community, One of the oldest requirements of Bioconductor is a vignette with some executed code. Recently I found some packages that do not have examples for some functions and vignettes with executed code in the current release while...
