All: I apologize as I think I had this problem before, and misplaced my notes on the solution. I just tried to upgrade my version of R on a Redhat Linux computer. I downloaded and ran the rpm for R-recommended-1.4.1-1.i386.rpm Problem is that when I type R from any directory the "old" version still seems to run. I can only guess this has to do with where the new and old version are being put. Any suggestions?

Obviously it is installed into a directory with higher priority in your search path than the newer version of R (or you set an alias?). Maybe one version is installed in /usr/.... (/usr/bin/R, /usr/lib/R/...) , the other one in /usr/local/.... (/usr/local/bin/R, /usr/local/lib/R/...)?

If you _have_ installed R-base-1.4.1, the things are more strange. You should look where exactly is the R which is executed, which package it belongs to, and where is the new R executable.
