...nd I'm a confused. - http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian/ seems to say I just change the sources list to point to '...cran3' instead of to '...cran' and then update / upgrade. Yet http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rw-FAQ.html#What_0027s-the-best-way-to-upgrade_003f (admittedly for Windows) says to uninstall and reinstall R. Do I follow the cran -> cran3 update approach, as I'm on Linux? - http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian/ says I should run "`dpkg -get-selections | grep r-cran` and compare with the list of packages supported...

Hello everyone. Currently I am running R 2.2.1 (windows), and I will like to update to 2.3. I wanted to ask if it is possible to update without having to removed 2.2.1; or do I first need to delete 2.2.1? Thank you very much. Tony [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear List, I am currently running R-2.10.1. I wish to install R-2.13.0 or update my R-2.10.1 to the R-2.13.0. I have downloaded R-2.13.0 but wish to seek your advice before installing that.

Hello all, I see that R 3.0.0 is announced (hurray!), and have a question regarding this line in the NEWS file: "Packages need to be (re-)installed under this version (3.0.0) of R." Assuming I copy my packages to the new library folder and run "update.packages" will it be enough? Or is there anything more to do? for example - for packages that I have which are already of the

I am still running 2.9.0 and came across a package that was built with 2.9.1. I got a warning upon loading the package. I tried to launch a function from such a package. It seems to hang up. I can't believe it takes forever. I am resolved to upgrade my R version to the newest one. But on a Windows box I do not know how to unistall the current version in advance of installing the new one.

Hello, The R version on my system is R version 2.8.1 (2008-12-22). I have previously installed all the desired packages for my work - and they have been working fine. However, somebody played with my system and removed almost all the stuff. I am installing the packages again. But I am finding some packages (such as, sp, rgdal, raster, etc) hard to install. Some of the error messages indicate

Dear all, I have installed the latest version of R 2.12.0 available on CRAN (http://cran.r-project.org).

Hi Ivan and R - Help Team, Thank you for your prompt response and the helpful information. I have another query: Is there a way to patch or upgrade the existing installation to version 4.4.0, rather than having to uninstall the older version and then install the latest one? A direct upgrade or patch would greatly simplify the process and reduce downtime. Your guidance on this matter would be

Hi, I just installed the 2.13 version for Mac (without uninstalling the previous versions). I transferred the folder library containing the packages I normally use to the 2.13 library folder. When I require any package this is what I get: require(ape) Loading required package: ape Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : unable to load shared object

I just installed R 2.12.1, and when I went to run a few old programs with it, nothing worked. I got a ton of error messages saying such and such package was built before R 2.10.0 and needed to be reinstalled. These were not just warning messages, but error messages that prevent the programs from running when they were running just fine with R 2.10.1 For some of those packages, such as deSolve, I

WinXP, R 2.10.1 I just updated R, and now have trouble. Perhaps it was the method I used to keep all the packages. I copied all the new packages from 2.10.1 back into the 2.10.0 folder, then copied them and all the others I've previously added from the 2.10.0 folder and pasted them back into 2.10.1's appropriate folder. Is this the source of my troubles? I am trying unsuccessfully to
