How to get fortunes in R
Have you installed the fortunes package? From within R you can go install.packages("fortunes") If you have already installed it then there is something deeper going on.

"new" package fortunes 1.0-3
Dear useRs, I used the summer months to work on all of my packages, and so this is the first of a sequence of announcements of "new" or updated packages. The "new" packages are new in the sense that previous versions had been on CRAN for some months but hadn't been announced to the R community via this list until now. All packages are available from the CRAN master site

Reproducible use case for R crash after updating R
This might have been discussed before, but below is a "not-so-unlikely" use case where the user follows normal procedures, updates R to a major release version, and then R crashes: 1. Use runs R stable (e.g. v2.13.0). 2. User installs a package with a namespace, e.g. install.packages("fortunes"). 3. User uses the package and one of the package's objects are assigned to the

problem to exclude
Hi, I want to mirror NetBSD on this server: ftp://ftp.univ-orleans.fr/logiciel-libre/netbsd-ftp/ The problem is I dont want to mirror old versions (1.5.x) There are 1.5* branches as subdirs of 'packages' and others at the root of the server called 'NetBSD-release-1-5' and 'NetBSD-1.5.3'. I want to avoid to sync them. The command I use to sync is: - - - - - - - - - - -

fortune() in .Rprofile conflicts with R CMD INSTALL
Hello, This is about fortune package, but I think that might be related also to base R, so I am sending to package maintainer and R-devel list. I have the following in my .Rprofile to break monotony of code writing library(utils) library(fortunes) fortune() detach("package:fortunes") so I get a fortune every time I start R. It seems that this conflicts with R CMD INSTALL in latest

(Another) Bates fortune?
I vote to 'fortunize' Doug Bates on Hierarchical data sets: which software to use? "The widespread use of spreadsheets or SPSS data sets or SAS data sets which encourage the "single table with a gargantuan number of columns, most of which are missing data in most cases" approach to organization of longitudinal data is regrettable."
