[Rd] Question about package's DESCRIPTION/Depends field
Hi, My package "caMassClass" depends on several other packages, one of them "PROcess" residing on "Bioconductor" website. Bioconductor repository is not, listed in default set of repositories in current version of R (Windows R 2.1.1). As a result people installing my package have to change that default, before installing the package. Is there a way of including that information in the DESCRIPTION file, that would spare the user from manual tinkering with the installation process?. Something along the lines of "Repositories: Bioconductor". Jarek Tuszynski [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
