Dear members of the geomorph R package Development Team, After posting my complaints about the current problems in the geomorph R package I have just stumbled upon, I have been able to at least find a workaround to the annoying message about the missing "Biostrings" package.
I found out that "Biostrings" is part of the huge "Bioconductor" project which aims to develop a large set of tools for bioinformatics. Following the directions here ( https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/Biostrings.html) I have been able to install the required library (plus several other packages of ehich Biostrings depends) and afterwards could re-install version 2.15 of geomorph. Now everything works as before! But this is a makeshift solution. I have no idea why even previous versions of geomorph are now requiring "Biostrings" (which are part of Bioconductor, that I have never had in my R installation). Furthermore, the problem with the scaling of landmark coordinates in the current version of geomorph still stands and should be properly treated by offering an option to keep the 'old' mode in the digitize2d function. Hope this helps. With best regards, -- Dr. Mauro J.
