Description
Hi,
I am having an issue with packrat. The snapshot fails for the package SVGAnnotation on bioconductor. Packrat cannot identify correctly that it is a bioconductor package (no biocViews!) and the tries to find it in a local source and fails.

Start by reproducing the snapshot failure for the Bioconductor package SVGAnnotation and inspect how packrat identifies Bioconductor packages when biocViews is absent. Check the fallback that searches for a local source; done means SVGAnnotation is recognized correctly and the snapshot completes successfully.
