Error: 'recount3_url' is not a valid supported URL when I run "human_projects <- available_projects()"

Describe the bug

After loading recount3 R package, when I run human_projects <- available_projects(), it reports "Error: 'recount3_url' is not a valid supported URL since it's missing the URL//homes_index text file or 'recount3_url' is not an existing directory in your file system.". This function runs properly a while ago. But It's not working on both my desktop and laptop, so I'm guessing it's not the problem of my file system because I haven't modify anything both on my desktop and laptop.

Provide a minimally reproducible example (reprex)

library("recount3")
human_projects <- available_projects()

I get the same error message. How did you resolve this issue?

Thank you

Hi again,

If you are a Windows user, duffel now fully works on that operating system. That is, the duffel access issue has now been addressed by the internal switch from RCurl::url.exists() to httr::http_error(). You can gain access to these updates by installing recount3 version 1.10.2 (bioc-release aka 3.17) or 1.11.2 (bioc-devel aka 3.18).

duffel currently points to https://registry.opendata.aws/recount/ instead of IDIES.

Best,
Leo
