Debian BioConductor archive

The {alioth:pkg-bioc} is working on Debian packages repository for the libraries at ?BioConductor (http://www.bioconductor.org). More information is found on this Wiki page: ?AliothPkgBioc.

The following steps are required to prepare all ?BioConductor packages:

1. Preparation of folders 

   mkdir bioc && cd bioc && ln -s ../cran2deb.pl ../["CRAN2DEB"].pm .

2. Mirroring 

   wget -r --reject zip -l 2 -N -nH \
   http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/bioc/devel/src/contrib/html/

3. Compilation 

   ./cran2deb
