This is very weird. hdf5 is not required by SingleR, and not loaded by it. I didn't do a lot of testing with Seurat v3.0, but I did install it with SingleR and it did work. Does this issue come already in the installation of SingleR?
Would singleR reinstall Seurat package if it already exists (I think Seurat uses hdf5r package but required a lower system version and that's why it worked before when I was installing Seurat)? Thanks.
No, there is no reason why it would do that.
I have the same issue while installing SingleR from GitHub source, do you find an answer to solve this?
If you are using macOS you probably need to upgrade your hdf5 version. If you are using Homebrew, try in the terminal:
brew install hdf5
Thank you so much for your reply. I am using cluster with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 the current operating system and I don't have root permission. Seems like the hdf5 is a dependency by Seurat and I have Seurat run pretty well in my cluster, so can I install SingleR while avoid the need of hdf5?
I guess what happens is that while trying to install SingleR, it identifies that Seurat needs to be updated (not to version 3, just the current version in CRAN), but in the new version, they require a newer version of hdf5.
You can try using the install_github flags dependencies=F or upgrade = 'ask'.
Hi, I was trying to install SingleR and got the following error message:
configure: error: The version of hdf5 installed on your system is not sufficient. Please ensure that at least version 1.8.13 is installed.
However, I already have Seurat development version (3.0) installed and worked fine. Is there any workaround or ultimate solution? Thanks.
