R help - Nov 2010 - Error: package 'pcvsuite' was built before R 2.10.0: please re-install it

R-helpers,

I have had difficulty installing the "pcvsuite" package on R version
2.12.0 (2010-10-15).   The pcvsuite package is not available on CRAN, but is
located for download at the following website at the University of Washington:

Windows version
http://labs.fhcrc.org/pepe/dabs/pcvsuite_1.0.zip

Mac version
http://labs.fhcrc.org/pepe/dabs/pcvsuite_1.0_R_i386-apple-darwin8.11.1.tar.gz


I am using a MacBook Pro and have both Windows 7 and Mac OS X snow leopard
installed on their respective partitions.  When I install the windows pcvsuite
zip file on the Windows partition using R 2.12.0 (64 bit), I get no problems. 
However, when I install the mac version of pcvsuite on the Mac partition of the
same computer and an identical version of R (except for Mac), I get the
following:

* installing *binary* package ‘pcvsuite’ ...

* DONE (pcvsuite)
> library(pcvsuite)
Error: package 'pcvsuite' was built before R 2.10.0: please re-install
it
> 
Anybody have an idea of how I can use the pcvsuite package running on R 2.12.0
for Mac?

Thank you in advance for any solutions.

I would suggest going to the page from which you downloaded the software,
presumably http://labs.fhcrc.org/pepe/dabs/software.html and click on the
contact tab and tell them your problem. Either they will rebuild or supply
source.
