Package version warning - package ‘extdata’ is not available for Bioconductor version '3.17'

Hi friends

How would you deal with a package that is not compatible with my R version? I got this error :

Warning message:
package ‘extdata’ is not available for Bioconductor version '3.17'

A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere,
see the ideas at

Thanks

r bioconductor

There is probably no actual extdata library since it usually refers to the directory where a library stores data it comes packaged with.

What prompted you to try installing it?

Thanks I tried to update BiocManager using the command install.packages("BiocManager") . It installed the same version 3.17. How do I install 3.18? I think this will help with extdata.

As rpolicastro said, extdata is a dedicated folder in each package that for example stores demonstration data. Please say what you want to do, share code and errors, and then we can help. See https://www.bioconductor.org/install/ for installation of Bioc, but this is probably not the issue here.
