[R] Install Windows/R/.zip package under Linux/R
Dear all, how can I install the Windows/R package http://www.ssg.uab.edu/bhglm/files/BhGLM_1.0.zip under Linux/R? There is no CRAN package. Simply, applying gunzip, tar -czvf, R CMD INSTALL *.tar.gz did not work. Thanks in advance, Will
It may not be possible. Contact the maintainer described at http://www.ssg.uab.edu/bhglm/ to ask for a source package. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff Newmiller The ..... .....

In some temporary directory, simply: unzip BhGLM_1.0.zip cp -r BhGLM <the appropriate library> where "<the appropriate library>" is the library where you keep your installed additional packages. I did cp -r BhGLM ~/Rlib since I keep my add-on packages in ~/Rlib. Some people just use the "system" library; e.g. /usr/local/lib64/R/library; you will need to assume superuser privileges (use sudo, perhaps) to copy the package to that location. It's as easy as that. cheers, Rolf Turner
