trying to set up bigSCale_seems cannot load in R 3.6.1, 3.6.3 or 4.02

HI Jared or anyone. Trying to load bigSCale2 and says not available for R 3.6.1, then tried 3.6.3, then tried 4.02--same answer not available. Looked at the required packages, loaded "SingleCellExperiment", "BioQC", "org.Hs.eg.db" ok, but cannot load "org.Ms.eg.db"--says not available for any of those R.

Any suggestion to try. Thanks Here is an example with R 3.6.1--get the same with 3.6.3 and 4.0.2. steve

It seems bigSCale is only available at the github repositoty, so you need devtools or remotes to install it:

devtools::install_github("iaconogi/bigSCale2")

edit: it is not org.Ms.eg.db, the correct is org.Hs.eg.db, ot maybe you want org.Mm.eg.db.
