We should have a config option for ignoring BioC packages.

Try specifying the full URL of the repo.

OK. It is not printed interactively, not sure why. We'll see.

Yes, this method of installation does not support homebrew R currently. Which we should elaborate on the readme.

Unfortunately it is hard to solve this properly with just `install.packages()`, because it does not support architectures properly, and our repo serves (x86_64) Linux binaries when `options(pkgType)` is `source`. But...

The suggested installation method now fails on Homebrew R, and there is also a note in the README, under "Installation": > For macOS we only support the official CRAN R...

We'll have better renv support soonish.

@jimbrig Yeah, I agree. The difficulty is that R packages do not have a standard way to "install" executables, so we would need to work that out first.

This is a bit different, because the error that pak (pkgcache probably) throws is not very informative: ``` > pak::pak("magick") v Updated metadata: 0 B in 6 files. i source...

`pak::pkg_install()` already chooses the binary, unless you specify `upgrade = TRUE`. But I guess you want something like "upgrade, but only use the binaries"?
