R help - Nov 2003 - XML package

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have tried to install biocoductor package. During the installation, there 
was an error message showing, there is no XML package available and 
suggested me to download from the R-project website. Unfortunately I could 
not find it. Could you give me a hand? Thanks a lot.

Cheers,

Sen-Lin

Try this for the source package:

	http://cran.au.r-project.org/src/contrib/XML_0.95-4.tar.gz
	
where I substituted .au. for the .us. location I'd use. Binary packages are
in the sibbling directories. 

If you happen to run Debian, thanks to Rafael's packaging work on this:

	$ apt-get install r-cran-xml
