Hi, I recently updated to R 3.0.1. I'm running linux ubuntu 12.04. I realized that I have to update all the installed packages so I run > update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE) as described here http://www.r-bloggers.com/r-3-0-0-is-released-whats-new-and-how-to-upgrade/ . The first thing it did was telling me that it will not update several packages. When it was finished I used the warnings function to have a look at what did not work. See the list below. > warnings() Warning messages: 1: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?boot? had non-zero exit status 2: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?cluster? had non-zero exit status 3: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?foreign? had non-zero exit status 4: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?KernSmooth? had non-zero exit status 5: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?MASS? had non-zero exit status 6: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?Matrix? had non-zero exit status 7: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?nlme? had non-zero exit status 8: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?nnet? had non-zero exit status 9: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?rpart? had non-zero exit status 10: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?spatial? had non-zero exit status 11: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?survival? had non-zero exit status 12: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?class? had non-zero exit status 13: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?epiR? had non-zero exit status 14: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?gmodels? had non-zero exit status 15: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?gplots? had non-zero exit status 16: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?mgcv? had non-zero exit status 17: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, ... : installation of package ?gregmisc? had non-zero exit status I tried to reinstall them manually but this always failed because of a package dependency to the "compiler" package. Now, if I try to install the compiler package it tells me. > install.packages("compiler") Installing package into ?/home/christoph/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.0? (as ?lib? is unspecified) Warning message: package ?compiler? is not available (for R version 3.0.1) The last line also came up all the time when the packages were updated Doing a bit of research does not deliver much only that the compiler package was included into R at version 2.13.0 (http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/blog/2011/04/12/). Most of those packages which do not work any more are pretty important for some of my scripts and I would not even know what packages replace the packages above. Would anyone know how to fix this? Regards

Hi, How did you upgraded your version of R? From source or from a Linux package? Regards, Pascal On 05/31/2013 11:33 AM, Christoph Knapp wrote:> Hi, > I recently updated to R 3.0.1.
