matchprobes for R

Which R version include match probes package? I tried download it for R 3.1.3 and 2.1.5 version with Mac OS.

This R 3.1.3

Warning message:
package 'matchprobes' is not available (as a binary package for R version 3.1.3)

This R 2.1.5

package 'matchprobes' is not available (for R version 2.15.3)

Have you follow their instruction? You need to download it using biocLite

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("matchprobes")

Yes and give warning message

package 'matchprobes' is not available (for R version 2.15.3)

Try downloading the tar.gz file and install it manually. That worked for me a few times

I don't know manually install. How I do it?

It looks like that was last in Bioconductor in version 2.6, which corresponds to R version 2.11

In fact, that was replaced by Biostrings in 2010.

I download R version 2.6.2. Then,

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")

This message:

Error in get(".BioC_version_associated_with_R_version", envir = asNamespace("tools"),  :
  variable ".BioC_version_associated_with_R_version" was not found

How do I install an older version of Bioconductor?

Given that the functionality in that package has been subsumed elsewhere, the better question is why bother?
