Updating

To update an aroma.* package, just follow the installation instructions.   Already up-to-date packages will be skipped.

Patching

Bug fixes are sometimes released as code patches until the next version of the package is released.  There will always be an announcement on the mailing list about available patches.  To download and install patches, do:

library("aroma.affymetrix");
downloadPackagePatch("R.filesets"); 
downloadPackagePatch("aroma.core");
downloadPackagePatch("aroma.affymetrix");

This will install a permanent patch that will be removed when the next release is installed.  Other aroma.* packages can be patched the same way, if patches are available.
