The package depends, among others, also on a bioconductor package called snpStats.
It might be so that this package is not automatically installed during the installation process and that it triggers an error. In that case this package needs to be installed prior the installation of ‘GenomicTools’ like this

[shell]
source(“https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R”)
biocLite(“snpStats”)
[/shell]
