extra installation steps required
alyssafrazee opened this issue · comments
Depending on the user's current package configuration, installing the package directly from GitHub may fail. I had to do the following in order to install derfinder:
- install Rcpp and RcppArmadillo using
install.packages - install qvalue and ggbio using
biocLite - install (from source) the devel version of bumphunter. Currently at 1.3.6, but minimum version required is 1.3.3
- install gfortran (fortran compiler for Mac - Xcode does not come with one) - available here. gfortran is required by Rcpp.
After this, install_github('derfinder','lcolladotor') succeeds.
Is it possible to automate these installation steps or clarify in the docs that this stuff has to be pre-installed?
update - I see that the README addresses the first 2 bullet points. awesome.
And the third one too ;) I just didn't know about the gfortran problem. Thanks for submitting the issue!
No longer depending on Rcpp.
