[Rd] R-2.3.1.tar.gz does not contain VR bundle (PR#9084)
Full_Name: Jarno Tuimala Version: 2.3.1 OS: Solaris / Linux Submission from: (NULL) (193.166.2.98) Today I downloaded the latest source code release R-2.3.1.tar.gz, and it seems not to contain the VR bundle. After running ./configure I get the following error message: checking for recommended packages... ./src/library/Recommended/VR_*.tar.gz: No such file or directory no configure: error: Some of the recommended packages are missing Use --without-recommended-packages if this was intentional 39.99u 115.47s 3:02.64 85.1% There is a soft link to the newest version of bundle under /src/library/Recommended, but the actual bundle is missing: drwx------ 2 biosci csc 1024 Jun 1 11:25 ./ drwx------ 16 biosci csc 1024 Jun 1 11:25 ../ -rw------- 1 biosci csc 20 Apr 10 01:19 .cvsignore lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 18 Jul 18 12:42 boot.tgz -> boot_1.2-24.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 187471 Apr 10 01:29 boot_1.2-24.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 21 Jul 18 12:42 cluster.tgz -> cluster_1.11.0.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 210215 May 19 12:30 cluster_1.11.0.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 21 Jul 18 12:42 foreign.tgz -> foreign_0.8-15.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 300878 Apr 10 01:29 foreign_0.8-15.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 25 Jul 18 12:42 KernSmooth.tgz -> KernSmooth_2.22-17.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 26876 Apr 10 01:29 KernSmooth_2.22-17.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 21 Jul 18 12:42 lattice.tgz -> lattice_0.13-8.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 226490 Apr 19 05:05 lattice_0.13-8.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 2394 Apr 10 01:19 Makefile.in lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 18 Jul 18 12:42 mgcv.tgz -> mgcv_1.3-17.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 263254 May 19 12:30 mgcv_1.3-17.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 18 Jul 18 12:42 nlme.tgz -> nlme_3.1-73.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 709014 May 23 05:05 nlme_3.1-73.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 19 Jul 18 12:42 rpart.tgz -> rpart_3.1-29.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 119319 Apr 19 05:05 rpart_3.1-29.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 20 Jul 18 12:42 survival.tgz -> survival_2.26.tar.gz -rw------- 1 biosci csc 862822 May 21 05:05 survival_2.26.tar.gz lrwxrwxrwx 1 biosci csc 18 Jul 18 12:42 VR.tgz -> VR_7.2-27.1.tar.gz Of course, this is easy to fix just by downloading and copying the VR bundle to the correct place.

Where did you get this file from?
The version on the CRAM master does contain the bundle (and did it not
seem strange to you that no one had reported this in the 6 weeks that the
version had been out if there was a problem?).

It is also possible that there is a bug in your tar, or a problem with
your disc system when unpacking.

[Rd] R-2.3.1.tar.gz does not contain VR bundle (PR#9084)
Dear professor Ripley, I downloaded the file from the CRAN mirrow at Austria, and it seemed very strange that nobody had noticed the same problem. But the same phenomenan appeared several times, so I was rather convinced that the file was missing. I now double-checked this on another system, and the bundle is indeed in the source distribution, but for some reason it is not untarred successfully in Solaris 5.9. This is funny, because I've not noticed anything similar with R source distribution previously. I'm sorry for any inconvenience, and conclude that the problem that was actually non-existenting is now solved. Thank you for your help!
