[R] cwhmisc package requests update all the time!
Dear Christian, Every single time check update package, ?cwhmisc? always requests updating. I?m aware that the package was latest updated in CRAN on 20Nov2008. Is there anything wrong with my R library or somethingelse? I use R 2.8.1 on Window XP service pack 2 Regards Nguyen Garvan Institute of Medical Research Sydney, Australia

I think I've experienced such a phenomenon where R detected that I had an old copy in a non-standard place, but updated the version in the default library location instead (and hence asked to update it again the next time). If you post some more information about installed package versions, lib.loc, etc. you might get a better diagnosis ... Ben Bolker
Hi Nguyen, I also experienced this problem, running the development version of R. The way I fixed it was to uninstall cwhmisc using remove.packages("cwhmisc") and reinstall it. Note, however, that I manually removed the cwhmisc folder before reinstalling.
