Dear R users, I have R 1.8.0. and, when I try to load the package "multcomp", I have an error message saying that this package was developed under R 1.8.1. So my question is "How to update R" ? Should I uninstall my version of R to install the new one or is there a simpler way to update it ? Than you for your answer. Sincerely, Renaud.
Dear Renaud There are several alternatives You need to tell us onwhich platform you run R. For instance, if on a Debian machine apt-get update may work You can aways compile from the source Or are you using a windows system? P.J.

Dear Renaud, Unless there's some other problem (such as failure to install the mvtnorm package, on which multcomp depends), there is no need to panic: the message is simply a warning. Since a new version of R (1.9.0) is imminent, you may want to update to that when it arrives. I hope this helps, John On Tue, 06 Apr 2004 17:30:34 +0200 Renaud Scheifler <renaud.scheifler at univ-fcomte.fr> wrote:> Dear R users, > I have R 1.8.0. and, when I try to load the package "multcomp", I > have an error message saying that this package was developed under R > 1.8.1. > So my question is "How to update R" ? > Should I uninstall my version of R to install the new one or is there > a simpler way to update it ? > Than you for your answer. > Sincerely, > Renaud. > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide! > http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html-------------------------------- John Fox Department of Sociology McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario, Canada http://socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox/
