Hello,

All Mac binary packages in the new Bioconductor release are working now.

Please install the packages with

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("packagename")

Don't use update.packages().

You should be using the version of R available from CRAN:

http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/

To be extra thorough, you may want to uninstall/reinstall R before
reinstalling Biobase or other packages.

Please let us know if you still run into any issues.

Thanks
Dan
