the VR bundle that come with R. For those I get this (this
is what I got when I tried to update lattice but I get a similar
message for the VR bundle

r-forge build failure bafflement
I am attempting to build a package on r-forge and running into a

Problems with updating R-packages
Dear Helpers,
I am new in Linux and R, trying to update packages I need in my work,
but repeatedly I failed for reasons I do not understand.

local source packages install from within R session - cross-platform
I realize that others have struggled with this issue...i.e.
http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/help/05/01/9826.html
i am on os.x 10.4 w/ R2.2, and am (perhaps foolishly) also on this quest...
i would like to be able to install downloaded source (tar.gz'd) files from
within an R session, and have it work in a X-platform way..i am often not
connected to the internet and have libraries

install.packages question / suggestion
Hello,
when trying to write an R-file, which automatically installs and updates a
given list of packages, I had two problems with install.packages()
1) install.packages("<package>") will install <package>, no matter if
<package> has already been installed.
2) the readline() at the end of install.packages, which asks the user, if
the downloaded files should be

hit a snag for R. I managed to find the information to point an

I installed a number of the additional R packages using synaptic which
reported no errors but when I run my first

install.packages() for local source file
Wish to install a local source package on Un*x platform from
within R. Same thing as I can accomplish from cmdline as
$ export R_LIBS=~/R/library
$ cd /path/to/pkg
$ R CMD INSTALL -l $R_LIBS <pkgname>
So, how do you go about this anyway?
And isn't this a bug in 'install.packages'?
