I downloaded geepack from your site and installed it from the zip file.
However, although it appears under my library directory, I could not load
into R.

Subject: new packages: geepack and KMsurv
I uploaded two packages to cran two weeks ago, and have just compiled them
for windows using the cross-building tools on linux. Now I would like to
anounce their existence.
The first package, geepack, is generalized estimating equations modeling
for both mean and association structure for multivariate responses. The
DESCRIPTION file is
Package: geepack
Version: 0.1-4
Date: 2002/9/28
Title: Generalized Estimating Equation Package
Author: Jun Yan <jyan at stat.wisc.edu>
Maintainer: Jun Yan <jyan at stat.wisc.edu>
Description: Generalized estimating equations solver for parameters in
mean, scale, and correlation structures, through mean link, scale link, and
correlation link. Can also handle clustered categorical responses.
License: GPL version 2 or later.
The second package KMsurv is a data package for the textbook Klein and
Moeschberger (1997), Survival Analysis. It may be useful in teaching
or studying such a course. The DESCRIPTION file is
Package: KMsurv
Version: 0.1-1
Date: 2002/05/18
Title: Data sets from Klein and Moeschberger (1997), Survival Analysis
Author: Original by Klein and Moeschberger
modifications by Jun Yan <jyan at stat.wisc.edu>
Maintainer: Jun Yan <jyan at stat.wisc.edu>
Description: Data sets and functions for Klein and Moeschberger (1997),
"Survival Analysis, Techniques for Censored and Truncated Data",
Springer.
Depends: survival
License: GPL version 2.0 or later
The windows version of these packages are available at
http://franz.stat.wisc.edu/~jyan/mysoft/
I am grateful to Professor Douglas Bates and Professor Jason Fine for
encouragement, discussions and comments.
Please kindly let me know if there are any questions, comments,
and bugs of course.

jsendak at omniwhittington.co.uk said:> I downloaded geepack from your site and installed it from the zip > file. However, although it appears under my library directory, I could > not load into R.I found out that all old packages with compiled code in shared libraries fail to load in R-1.6.0. My platform is RH7.3 with the notorious C/G77 compiler, but the reason seem not to be changes in compiler, but changes in R. Packages that I had compiled and installed day before upgrading to R-1.6.0 failed after upgrading. The problem vanishes when the package is re-installed from the source. This is a mild nuisance and for several packages I wait that they are ugpraded in CRAN so that re-building happens automatically. I am not sure if this is the reason with your trouble with binary packages, since your platform is very different. This is the output I get with one example package:> library(acepack)Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) : unable to load shared library "/usr/lib/R/library/acepack/libs/acepack.so": libR.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Error in library(acepack) : .First.lib failed # But it is there:> system("ls /usr/lib/R/library/acepack/libs/acepack.so -l")-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 68548 May 29 11:00 /usr/lib/R/library/acepack/libs/acepack.so> dyn.load("/usr/lib/R/library/acepack/libs/acepack.so")Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) : unable to load shared library "/usr/lib/R/library/acepack/libs/acepack.so": libR.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I have tried to find if this new behaviour is documented, but I haven't yet found anything, so this may be an "undocumented feature".

There will be a checked Windows version on CRAN tomorrow which you will be able to download in the usual way for contributed package. (I've just uploaded about 50 new/updated precompiled packages for Windows 1.6.0.)

I just recompiled and now there is a new version at http://franz.stat.wisc.edu/~jyan/mysoft/ (click the windows binary on this page) I will not have a chance to test it until I get home this evening. Please let me know if it is still not working. I appreciate people's quick feedback. Jun Yan Department of Statistics Office: CSSC 4252 university of Wisconsin-Madison Tel: (608)262-7478 1210 W.
