R SIG Debian - Apr 2012 - ez package installation fails - ubuntu 12.04

Hello everyone,

I've just installed ubuntu 12.04 and the package named 'ez' fails to
install because of a dependency.
The error messages are:

Error : package ‘Matrix’ 1.0-2 is loaded, but >= 1.0.3 is required by ‘ez’
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package ‘ez’
* removing ‘/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/ez’

The downloaded packages are in
    ‘/tmp/Rtmp38etdB/downloaded_packages’
Mensagens de aviso perdidas:
In install.packages("ez") :
  installation of package ‘ez’ had non-zero exit status


I'm not sure if this is the proper way to report a bug. I hope it helps.

Is there anything I can do to get it working?


Thanks in advance.

you are obviously using 

install.libraries('ez', dependencies = T)

Right?

Read   http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/    and add the CRAN
repository. This will, among other things, give you a current version of the
Matrix package as r-cran-matrix.
