I have been trying to download the climstats package: https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=861 but it doesn't seem to run on R 3.0.2 or 3.0.1 and the zipfile is empty. Does anyone know the status of this package or where I can download it.

R version 3.0.1 Patched (2013-07-23 r63392) Running Mac OS 10.7.5. It appears to require a fair number of external package, so you would need to check the Depends in the description file. Depends: R (>= 2.13), raster, rgdal, chron, zoo, sp, ncdf, R.utils It did not appear to do any C or Fortran compiling, so I think that means you do not need to have RTools installed on Windows. But since it requires rgdal, you would need to have GDAL installed if you were to get it to load.> > Does anyone know the status of this package or where I can download it. > > Thanks > > ****************** > Jenny Williams > Spatial Information Scientist, GIS Unit > Herbarium, Library, Art & Archives Directorate > Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew > Richmond, TW9 3AB, UK > > Tel: +44 (0)208 332 5277 > email: jenny.williams at kew.org<mailto:jenny.williams at kew.org> > ****************** > > Film: The Forgotten Home of Coffee - Beyond the Gardens<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uDtytKMKpA&sns=tw> > Stories: Coffee Expedition - Ethiopia<http://storify.com/KewGIS/coffee-expedition-ethiopia> > Blog: Discovering Coffee in Ethiopia <http://www.kew.org/news/kew-blogs/incrEdibles-food-blog/discovering-coffee.htm> > Kew in Harapan Rainforest Sumatra<http://storify.com/KewGIS/kew-in-harapan-rainforest> > Articles: Seeing the wood for the trees<http://www.kew.org/ucm/groups/public/documents/document/kppcont_060602.pdf> > How Kew's GIS team and South East Asia botanists are working to help conserve and restore a rainforest in Sumatra.

It seems to load now on 3.0.2 32bit and 64bit but NOT 3.0.1. install.packages("climstats", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org", type="source") I did have to manually install some of the dependencies. There were 2 of us that tried loading climstats on different machines so there must have been a blip with our firewall or something. Now that I have climstats loaded the function I am trying to use doesn't work. I can bring up the help file: ?spatial_sync_raster but I get this error when I try to use the function: Error: could not find function "spatial_sync_raster" On Sep 30, 2013, at 10:39 AM, Prof Brian Ripley wrote:> On 30/09/2013 18:19, David Winsemius wrote: >> >> On Sep 30, 2013, at 3:25 AM, Jenny Williams wrote: >> >>> I have been trying to download the climstats package: >>> https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=861 >>> >>> but it doesn't seem to run on R 3.0.2 or 3.0.1 >> >> What makes you say this?

On both Windows and OS X, GDAL is part of the rgdal binary.My error apparently. I have in the past had incorrect installations of GDAL that prevented rgdal from loading properly and my sometimes fuzzy memory was that I fixed this by reinstalling GDAL. So I thought they were independent installations.
