...s("repos") contains a CRAN entry and will not override that CRAN entry even if the $R_HOME/etc/repositories file (which setRepositories reads from) contains a CRAN entry. Why is this? The user could easily set options("repos") without the help of this function anyway? And chooseCRANmirror() obviously sets the CRAN entry correctly. I've checked the latest nightly tarball, R-devel_2005-06-15.tar.gz, and this observations persists. I also observe that the R-2.1.0 Rprofile in the base package sets options(repos=c(CRAN="@CRAN@")), so it seems that the only way to set t...

...will have a lot of changes in 2.1.0, and I have been adding some widgets to go along with this. - Rather than just CRAN and BIOC, you have a character vector of repositories. There is a function setRepositories() to set the appropriate option(). - There is no default CRAN, but a function chooseCRANmirror() to set a mirror, which is invoked if you try to access CRAN without setting a mirror. - update.packages(ask="graphics") brings up a listbox for you to de-select packages (all available updates are pre-selected). - install.packages() with no/empty pkgs argument brings up a lis...

While it worked, CRAN website had the following message: >> The CRAN Admin Team will perform system upgrades during the period >> Wednesday November 15 until Thursday November 16, 2023.

...version (1.7-0 for -release and -devel), only source package installation needs to concern itself with the Recommended subdirectory. Would it be possible to generate the PACKAGES* index files in the 4.4.0/Recommended subdirectory? Then on the R side it would be needed to add a new repo (adjusting chooseCRANmirror() to set it together with repos["CRAN"]) and keep the rest of the machinery intact. -- Best regards, Ivan
