I've just installed R 1.0.8 (for Windows) and I tried to install the package Quantreg directly from Cran but it's not in the list of downlodable packages. I tried also downloading the zip file and then install it but there is an error. How can I do it? Thank you [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

And the corresponding Status file and check-log tells you quantreg is among those packages. So you have to compile from source yourself. Uwe Ligges
I'm not sure why quantreg isn't in the windows binaries on CRAN, perhaps Uwe can explain this...if there is a problem I'd be happy to try to help, but I don't have access to a windows machine myself. url: www.econ.uiuc.edu/~roger/my.html Roger Koenker email rkoenker at uiuc.edu Department of Economics vox: 217-333-4558 University of Illinois fax: 217-244-6678 Champaign, IL 61820 On Thu, 23 Oct 2003, Radaelli Paolo - Dottorati di Ricerca wrote:> I've just installed R 1.0.8 (for Windows) and I tried to install the package Quantreg directly from Cran but it's not in the list of downlodable packages. > I tried also downloading the zip file and then install it but there is an error. > How can I do it? > Thank you > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help >
