Hi all
I just got my first Linux box, and I''ve installed successfully R by
downloading the "latest" version from the CRAN site, which is R-1.2.3
I would love to keep on using Prof. Ripley''s code, esp. the nnet
library,
as I was doing on both a unix machine and a Windows in the past.
When I get to the
R CMD INSTALL VR_6.2-6.tar.gz
part, though, the compilation fails because - of course- I''m not using
R 1.3.0.
Is there any way around it? Is there an R 1.3.0 version for Linux (Debian)
or an older source code for the packages that can compile under R-1.2.3?
I tried the old versions listed on the CRAN site, but they failed to
compile as well, this time crying out for undefined references...
thanks in advance
claudia

You can get R1.3.0 from the developer site ftp://cvs.r-project.org/pub/CRAN/src/base/R-1.3.0.tgz ftp://cvs.r-project.org/pub/CRAN/src/base/R-1.3.0-recommended.tgz or wait a day or so until CRAN synchronises -thomas Thomas Lumley Asst.
