Ok, I understand. Is it safe to assume that the rsvg package would be
available by the time the next bioconductor release occurs? In that case
I can just plan to re-enable that function at release time. Otherwise I
will have to find another workaround for it. Thanks.

Hi Kevin,
As Val said, some CRAN packages with native code won't compile
on our Windows or Mac builders because of missing components,
and rsvg is one of them. Please keep in mind that we already
install many external components required for the compilation
of Bioconductor packages. The process of doing so on a fresh
Mac El Capitan system is documented here:
https://github.com/Bioconductor/BBS/blob/master/Doc/Prepare-MacOSX-El-Capitan-HOWTO.TXT
Installing these components is time consuming and there is always
the risk to introduce some conflicts/instabilities when installing
new components. Given that our resources are limited, it wouldn't
make much sense that we do this for those CRAN packages for which
the binaries are only temporarily unavailable.
Cheers,
H.

Valerie,
Ok, I understand the difference now. Would it be possible to
install the system requirement for rsvg ( just on devel)?
I'm trying to generate plots in either PNG or SVG with OpenBabel.
For PNG, OpenBabel requires it's own Cario library be installed on the
system (doesn't seem to work with what is built into R, as it needs to
be linked with OpenBabel). I've not been successful getting the Cairo
lib installed on windows, but using SVG with OpenBabel, and then reading
that back into R with rsvg, works fine. So it seems I'll need a extra
system library either way ( either Cairo, or librsvg2).
Thanks.

Hi,
By default, the build system installs CRAN dependencies on the Mac and
Windows builders with 'type=both':
install.packages("mypackage", type="both")
This means it first tries to install the binary and if that fails, it
tries to install from source. Packages without native code or
SystemRequirements usually install fine from source. This is the case
for DiagrammeR which can be installed on the build machines. rsvg is
in the Suggests field of DiagrammeR so rsvg is not needed to install
or load the package.
The rsvg package is different in that it has 'librsvg2' as a
SystemRequirement which is not installed on the Mac (or Windows) build
machine:

We do install all SystemRequirements for Bioconductor packages on the
Mac and Windows builders but not for CRAN packages. Installing all
third party requirements of CRAN dependencies would add significantly
to the build system maintenance and really only serves a purpose in
this window of time where binaries are not available for devel.
cc'ing Herve in case he has more to add.

Valerie,
I'm not sure I understand. I looked at another package that is
currently installed on the mac devel machine, DiagrammeR
(https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__cran.r-2Dproject.org_package-3DDiagrammeR&d=DwICAg&c=eRAMFD45gAfqt84VtBcfhQ&r=BK7q3XeAvimeWdGbWY_wJYbW0WYiZvSXAJJKaaPhzWA&m=y_AVoDJvCaCexHFznr_ua93-DoFexhIDSKUK1NcBzNs&s=7UDK9omF9qsdLzWH6wEh_fyNE5BuQbNbJzc0v925ElE&e=),
and it has the same
set of links on the CRAN site as rsvg does. In particular, it does
not show a r-devel version for El Capitan.
Also, rsvg is not installed on the release mac build machine
either, which it should have a version for.

Hi Kevin,
CRAN binaries for El Capitan in devel aren't available. You can see
this on the rsvg landing page:
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__cran.r-2Dproject.org_web_packages_rsvg_index.html&d=DwICAg&c=eRAMFD45gAfqt84VtBcfhQ&r=BK7q3XeAvimeWdGbWY_wJYbW0WYiZvSXAJJKaaPhzWA&m=y_AVoDJvCaCexHFznr_ua93-DoFexhIDSKUK1NcBzNs&s=ykWNmVUAiB_w-DbtSqe1v5yWUnT_KpcxPCqUSLt873w&e=
Nothing we can do until CRAN makes them available.

The ChemmineR build is failing on the mac due to a new dependency
not
being available, the package "rsvg". Would it be possible to install
that on the mac build machine? Thanks.
