Dear Bioc team,
A friend of mine had the following trouble to install the biosigner package on
R 3.2.3.
I do not understand why the package would require a dedicated version of R (in
particular >3.2.3) except that it uses S4 methods, and if/how I have to specify
an R version within the package (note that the ropls package, which biosigner
depends upon, seemed to require also a recent version of R).
I thank you very much in advance for your answer.
Kind Regards,
Etienne.

Bioconductor version 3.2 (BiocInstaller 1.20.3), ?biocLite for help
A new version of Bioconductor is available after installing the most recent
version of R; see http://bioconductor.org/install

Update all/some/none? [a/s/n]: n
Warning message:
package 'biosigner' is not available (for R version 3.2.3)
When I updated my R version to the latest it worked. I'll check which version
is used in biosigner. But unless there is a good reason to have to use R >
3.2.3, I would allow the package to install on older versions (people don't
update R on their desktops so often). I think you need to set that up on the
config files of the package that you upload to bioconductor.
