similar to: Hmisc for Maverick

Greeting R debianites - There are a number of R libraries I need debianized (for Ubuntu Maverick systems, if it matters) -- ISwR, Hmisc, mosaic, mosaicManip, HSAUR2 -- which I couldn't find debian packages for. The structure of R libraries is so regular that I'm guessing surely there must be a template for creating debian packages for them, or maybe a set of instructions? Does

This is a post I just added to my Ubuntu R Blog (http://www.personal.psu.edu/mar36/blogs/the_ubuntu_r_blog/2013/03/moving-to-r-300-on-ubuntu.html). As you may (or may not) be aware of, R 3.0.0 is [scheduled to be released](http://www.r-project.org/) on April 3rd. Since this is a major release and there may be some growing pains (but I hope not) in the move 3.0.0, here is some information

Hi, I have sent this mail to info@puppetlabs.com and received no answer, so I''m posting here as well; I hope somebody at PuppetLabs will be able to help. I have a local mirror of apt.puppetlabs.com which has been broken for at least a few days: the apt/dists/ subdirectory only contains symlinks to non-existent files. [mirror@excellent dists]$ ls -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 mirror mirror 29

Dear List, i was running a few natty systems and upgraded one of them to oneiric. Facter shows the right lsbdistcodename, lsbdistrelease, etc. parameters, but when i''m running puppet agent the modules has access to the previous (natty, etc.) values. As i see on puppetmaster in /var/ lib/puppet/yaml/{facts,node} the output from facter and the agent is cached and won''t update

Hi everyone, I am using the backports from http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/lucid/ on Lucid and would like to create a bunch of additional r-cran packages on my workstation. Where can I find the latest scripts to automatically create those packages? Is https://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/cran2deb/ still up-to-date? Best -Dominique

I have been a little quiet on the update front for the past few months, so I thought I would give a quick update as 2014 begins. Between increased responsibilities at work (pseudo-department chair) and some family health issues, work on [cran2deb4ubuntu](https://launchpad.net/~marutter/+archive/c2d4u) (c2d4u) slowed a bit in the last half of 2013. Here is the current state of

So last night I try to start L4D2 (which previously worked), and am seeing this dreaded message as the first in the console: Code: err:wgl:X11DRV_WineGL_InitOpenglInfo couldn't initialize OpenGL, expect problems This is happening both with the latest Wine from git and from the prebuilt 1.3 package in the Oneiric repos. It was all working fine when I last tested (using my git build) a

Hi! I tried booting ubuntu natty/oneiric domUs with 2.6.39 and 3.0rc1 linux-image packages, but they all "just stop" after the kernel is loaded and the init process should take over. The problem must be within the linux-image package, since natty domUs with the standard 2.6.38 kernel boot just fine. I also have debian and gentoo domUs running 2.6.39 without issues, so it''s

Hi list, I don''t trust theoretical benchmarks that much and prefer "real-life benchs" on the occasion, so here''s mine: Given 4 laptops, the most powerful of which was running BTRFS and the others ext3 or ext4, all machines running Ubuntu 11.04 Natty 32-bit with a stock Ubuntu 2.6.38-11 kernel, all machines were given the following FS-intensive task : - Upgrade

Thanks for keeping us updated. Before I jump the gun and put this out on social media (as a follow-up to this tweet https://twitter.com/robinlovelace/status/990682038373158912 ), would you say this is a reasonable message to send to the R-using Ubuntu community?: Follow-on advice in case it's of use to any #Ubuntu + #rstats users out > there: wait until Ubuntu 18.04.1 is released before

As of a few days I'm seeing this error on travis: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libleptonica-dev : Depends: liblept5 (= 1.74.4-1+nmu1ppa1~trusty1) but it is not going to be installed Which is caused by: The following packages have unmet dependencies: liblept5 : Depends: libopenjp2-7 (>= 2.0.0) but it is not installable This is caused by the recent update libleptonica

Hi all, I am running R 2.5.0 under Windows XP Media Center Edition. Here's a problem that's been stumping me for a few days now, and I can't find anything useful in the archives. I am using voronoi.mosaic (tripack package) to create proximity polygons for a study of vegetation competition and dynamics. The points lists are read in from a file for each plot, then 8 duplicates

Hi, I like mosaic function of "vcd" package. I have played around it. I have found out that mosaic plot data table is 2-dimension does not stretch when you enlarge a mosaic plot. It is okay when data table is 3 or more dimension. The first one is of 3-dimension table case, and the second one is 2-dimension. With the first plot, you can drag window to enlarge a plot. With the

Hello: What is the most efficient way to change the plotted variable names in mosaic plots in the vcd package? Should one do a separate contingency table first, change the dimension names there and then pass that to mosaic? Or is there a way to do it simply within mosaic. I was thinking something like: mosaic(~var1+var2, labelling_args=list(varnames=c('newvar1', 'newvar2')) Simon

As per a request, here is a brief guide to what is available to R users as packages in Ubuntu. Each release of Ubuntu includes the latest version of R and the recommended packages. In addition, there are approximately 80 additional r-cran packages available in the default repositories. The limitation to these packages is that they are not updated and reflect the current version of the

Hello, I noticed a strange thing when attempting to upgrade a specific package (lavaan) from c2d4u and wondered if someone could confirm the problem. In short, apt seems to think that an older version from the "universe" repo is higher than the newer version from c2d4u. When I do apt-cache showpkg r-cran-lavaan I get the output at the bottom of this email. Then, I tried to force

I?m preparing a package (fastR) for submission to CRAN, but the vignette index keeps going AWOL, or at least R CMD check ?as-cran thinks so. I?ve tried several things and gave myself the weekend to think of other things, but I can?t figure it out. Perhaps someone on the list can lend a hand. Here?s one example situation, where I build the index.html file myself and put it in inst/doc/index.html
