"> You don't actually need to install bioconductor packages from
source "
Can Simon Urbanek weigh in on this?
I've been keeping an eye on R-SIG-Mac and have been seeing
repeated references in the last few weeks about
installing from source for 64-bit R.
...
For some tangential weight, see this posting where Patrick Aboyoun
answered my question regarding using 64bit bioconductor on os x:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.science.biology.informatics.conductor/20273/focus=20404
As a point of reference, although he doesn't list ppc64 there, looking
through my d/l'd bioconductor I see most all of the packages have
ppc64 builds in their libs folders. The only one that doesn't have
ppc64 is `affy`, which is curious.
Given that limma and affy both d/l when you do a default BioC install
with `biocLite()`, I'm not sure why that's the case.
