For me, running biocLite(c("rtracklayer", "S4Vectors", "XVector", "IRanges", "Biostrings", "GenomicRanges", "GenomicAlignments")) Worked and solved the error.

I think that the generic was redefined in base R, but you have packages that were installed before the generic was redefined. The methods in the installed packages think that they are associated with the generic at the time of installation, rather than at runtime. Unfortunately I think this means manually re-installing even up-to-date packages that define S4 "c" methods; likely this is a complicated stack of dependencies including rtracklayer, S4Vectors, XVector, IRanges, Biostrings, GenomicRanges, GenomicAlignments, ... However, I cannot figure out how to avoid this issue on AppVeyor (https://ci.appveyor.com/project/kevinrue/tvtb/build/job/srkobac85uksgcht). I have tried quite about 20 different combinations of settings in my YAML file (https://github.com/kevinrue/TVTB/commits/master) without success. I am not not sure how I may "manually reinstall" said packages, or somehow make sure the generic is define before all the relevant packages are installed. I'll admit that setting up a second Continuous Integration system is not the most pressing issue in my life, but I'm so close to succeeding that it is fairly frustrating to leave it at that :) Kind regards, Kevin On Thu, Oct 27, 2016 at 1:28 PM, Martin Morgan <martin.mor...@roswellpark.org<mailto:martin.mor...@roswellpark.org>> wrote: On 10/27/2016 08:22 AM, Kevin RUE wrote: Hi Ioannis, Vincent, I'm in the middle of debugging a similar situation myself, which may provide a reproducible example at a package level. I am in the process of setting up AppVeyor CI for my package, and my R CMD check fails because of the same error. https://ci.appveyor.com/project/kevinrue/tvtb/build/1.0.11 To debug the issue, I am also currently updating my local installation to the latest devel packages (until biocValid() returns TRUE). Once that is done, I may be able to provide a more practical minimal working example for the issue (i.e. the code in one of my man pages).
