There has been a notice of a breach (see: CVE-2007-4752) as to some binary content upstream of CentOS. I do not address that matter here beyond stating that the CentOS team have responded to the matter, and will continue this review process: updated 22 Aug 2008 CentOS acknowledge CVE-2007-4752 and are reviewing our build and signing processes and hosts for signs of tampering subsequent

Thanks.

You're definitely missing bits of texlive. Lots of "missing file: mf" in your debug logs. I think you need to start with installing texlive-metafont. Alternately, there are pre-built R 3.6.2 packages for EL-7 here: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1421894 I cannot push them as official updates to EPEL because of the catch-22 created by R's dependency on

I responded to a post in the Dell poweredge mailing list earlier today. My answer was off the top of my head, with a bit of experimentation. The content may be useful in the Cenyos context as well to admin's looking to strip the size of an install to the bare bones. Comment welcomed. Can anyone see any packages which I have missed? -- Russ Herrold ---------- Forwarded message

"Bzzzt wrong --- yada" is contentious, we don't need it. Please. 2: It's not rpm, it's the packager => "The killer is innocent, the *gun* killed the victim" " the gun didn't kill him, the *bullet* did" "no, the wound did!"

Hello, Besides the problem with using "names," one has a similar problem using ".Data" together with "VIRTUAL." Consider the top of p. 295 of the green book. This should work (I had to change "structure" to "junk" because "structure" is a sealed class definition): setClass("junk",

I'm surprised this isn't a FAQ, but I searched all over and could not find a reference to it. Chambers (1998) makes repeated references to "Chapters" in S (e.g., p. 6), but I can find no reference to "Chapters" in R. Since Chapters were not used in earlier versions of S, I'm wondering if R uses them or not. If it does, how does one get them to work? I've

No, you do not necessarily need the XY coordinates. You can also use polygon (field, in your case) adjacency information. See Rogerson, Peter A. 2001. _Statistical methods for geography_. Thousand Oaks: Sage. You might also look at GeoDA, a free and soon-to-be open source spatial analysis package. For your application, it might be easier to use than R.

Hi, I can't get the colClasses option to work in the readHTMLTable function of the XML package. Here's a code fragment: require("XML") doc <- "http://www.nber.org/cycles/cyclesmain.html" table <- getNodeSet(htmlParse(doc),"//table") [[2]] # The main table is the second one because it's embedded in the page table. xt

Hi, I've been struggling with this problem the last few days and finally discovered it's happening at a very fundamental level. Going through Stephen Turner's tutorial on ggplot2, I entered these base graphics commands: > with(diamonds, plot(carat,price)) > with(diamonds, plot(carat,price), xlab="Weight in Carats", ylab="Price in USD",

Hello, I have a function with these lines: test <- function(object,...){ cat("object: has ",nrow(object),"labels\n") cat("Head:\n") head(object,...) cat("\nTail:\n") tail(object,...) } If I feed it a data frame object, it only prints out the tail part. If I comment out the last two lines of

Hi, I am trying to read a tab-delimited file that has trailing tab delimiters. It's a simple file with two legitimate fields. I'm using the first as row.names, and the second should be the only column in the resulting data frame. Initially, R was filling the last column with NA's, but I was able to stop that by setting

Hi, I have a bright, diligent second-year graduate student who wants to learn statistics and R and will, in effect, be taking a tutorial from me on these subjects. (If you've seen some of my questions on this list, please don't laugh.) As an undergrad he majored in philosophy, so this will be his first foray into computer programming and statistics. I'm thinking of having him use
