Examples

## This function is deprecated. Please use biocLite() to install packages:
if (interactive()) {
  source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
  biocLite("hgu95av2.db")
}
## If you really need to get the list of Bioconductor package repositories
## (like biocReposList() does), then do:
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocinstallRepos()  # PLEASE USE THIS, NOT biocReposList()
