Issue with DEXSeq installation

Question

[Yuka Takemon]

Hello,

I am having issues installing the DEXSeq R package. I updated both bioinstaller and GenomicRanges in order to solve the problem, but no luck. Any insights would be appreciated.

Cheers, Yuka

Have you tried upgrading to the latest R version?

Hi Hussain, I feel very silly that I didn't update my R version before posting. It worked on R 3.4.3. Thank you!
