i have been trying to load the package ncdf using the command library(ncdf). below is my hardware information. platform i686-pc-linux-gnu arch i686 os linux-gnu system i686, linux-gnu status major 2 minor 4.0 year 2006 month 10 day 03 svn rev 39566 language R version.string R version 2.4.0 (2006-10-03) when i do below, i get that error and I'm not sure how to fix it ? library(ncdf) Error in package_version(vers) : invalid version specification i listed the directory and the library seems to be there ( but i didn't put ithe library there so maybe it's old but it says 2.4.0 ) so I don't know how to proceed ? i tried library(nnet) just to see if i had the same problem for all libraries but that worked fine. does anyone know anything specific about this library ncdf that needs to be done ? thanks a lot. ls -lrt ncdf total 22 drwxr-xr-x 2 vmsadmin bin 2048 Oct 30 15:06 man drwxr-xr-x 2 vmsadmin bin 2048 Oct 30 15:06 libs drwxr-xr-x 2 vmsadmin bin 2048 Oct 30 15:06 latex drwxr-xr-x 2 vmsadmin bin 2048 Oct 30 15:06 html drwxr-xr-x 2 vmsadmin bin 2048 Oct 30 15:06 help drwxr-xr-x 2 vmsadmin bin 2048 Oct 30 15:06 chtml drwxr-xr-x 2 vmsadmin bin 2048 Oct 30 15:06 R-ex drwxr-xr-x 2 vmsadmin bin 2048 Oct 30 15:06 R drwxr-xr-x 2 vmsadmin bin 2048 Oct 30 15:06 Meta lrwxr-xr-x 1 vmsadmin bin 27 Oct 30 15:06 MD5 -> ../../exec/library/ncdf/MD5 lrwxr-xr-x 1 vmsadmin bin 29 Oct 30 15:06 INDEX -> ../../exec/library/ncdf/INDEX lrwxr-xr-x 1 vmsadmin bin 35 Oct 30 15:06 DESCRIPTION -> ../../exec/library/ncdf/DESCRIPTION lrwxr-xr-x 1 vmsadmin bin 32 Oct 30 15:06 CONTENTS -> ../../exec/library/ncdf/CONTENTS piias171 /ms/dist/fsf/PROJ/R/2.4.0/library 426$ -------------------------------------------------------- This is not an offer (or solicitation of an offer) to buy/se...{{dropped}}
