similar to: RH 9 and R 1.7.0 Beta - response from Red Hat

Dear developeRs, I use Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 (Nahant Update 2) on an x86_64 machine (two Intel P4 CPUs with 64 bit support), and R-beta_2005-12-12_r36712.tar.gz. If I run configure without any options, it does not list tcltk among the supported interfaces: ./configure [...] R is now configured for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu Source directory: . Installation directory:

Hi Folks, Sorry to bring up this kind of issue (though any discussion may help some other people). I've just installed Red Hat 9 Linux (opting for GNOME) and now want to install R. I downloaded the RPM for Red Hat 9 from CRAN (as well as the patched readline). Attempting to install ( rpm -i R-1.7.1-1.i386.rpm ) I get, pretty quickly, the following: warning: R-1.7.1-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA

This message is in MIME format --_=XFMail.1.1.p0.Linux:971128122615:3052=_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii I have rounded up three buglets in R-0.50-a4. Two of them I can fix and a patch is supplied below. I hope this is useful for the current source (if these haven't been fixed already :) 1) cov cov() fails when it's argument is a matrix with one column and with column names

Hi there, When installing R on linux 8.0, I got the following error message: rpm -i /mnt/cdrom/linux/8.x/R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm error: /mnt/cdrom/linux/8.x/R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: BAD, key ID 97d3544e error: /mnt/cdrom/linux/8.x/R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm cannot be installed Any suggestions as what I did wrong? Thanks in advance. Wenyan [[alternate HTML version deleted]]

Hi, people. I was a bit intrigued by the message quoted below. Indeed, if pt() is given a matrix, it returns a matrix. Should this feature be documented? ?pt speaks about "a vector of quantiles", and says nothing about the type of what it returns. The same might presumably apply to other distribution-related functions. ----- Forwarded message from Martyn Plummer <plummer at

The document R-exts contains the following example of using mathematics in R documentation. \deqn{p(x) = {\lambda^x\ \frac{e^{-\lambda}}{x!}} {p(x) = lambda^x exp(-lambda)/x!} There is a syntax error in there, but that's not my point. The problem is that using "R CMD Rd2dvi" I find that putting the alternate forms of the equation on top of each other doesn't work.

Hi, I am trying to compile R-1.3.1 under RH-7.2 Linux. I used the old gcc compiler (kgcc) and the compilation went fine. I can start R and run some rudimentary tasks with no problem. However, when I did make check I got the following error in base-Ex.Rout > fa <- file.access(dir(".")) Error in file.access(dir(".")) : file.access is not implemented on

Hi all, Three months ago, I wrote to Martyn Plummer (to his Warwick email) and offered my help to maintain and modernize this [1] rather updated README, but received no response. Does anyone know how to reach him, or maybe I should contact CRAN directly? [1] https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/redhat/README Regards, -- I?aki ?car

R-help -- I built R-2.2.1 in my own directory on a sun (solaris). Now I would like the sysadmin to move the contents to /usr/local/lib and place the binary in /usr/local/bin. No problem. However, the RHOME variable defaults to the directory from which R was built so it is not usable by anyone but me or ROOT. I would like to avoid building this again if possible. Any ideas? Thanks, Dan

R is included in Fedora Extras. You can skip downloading Extras and updating the packages on the CD by using: yum index | grep R and installing the half dozen or so individual packages that will be listed. The number of packages may be mildly annoying but if you install this way you will be notified of R updates along with all of your other security and application updates through the Red Hat

Dear Martyn, Thank you so much for your suggestion. Can I install R by rpm WITHOUT Internet? This Linux server cannot connect to web.

I am an economist who decided it's high time that I learned some Bayesian statistics. I am following An Introduction to Modern Bayesian Econometrics by T. Lancaster. The book recommends using BUGS, but I wonder if there are any alternatives which are free software and fully integrated to R (which I have been using for more than two years for numerical computations.) I would like to learn

Martin, I am aware of --vanilla; I use it myself for some testing. In this case R_LIBS_USER was set externally (part of my login) and does not involve any of the R scripts. That means it is inherited by any subprocess.

Dear Tom, I see that RPMS for R 3.4.0 are not successfully built on Fedora, nor on RHEL 7. https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=1230 When I build with mock on Fedora 25 I also get a build failure. R is not able to establish the time zone inside the chroot and this triggers a regression tests which is new in R 3.4.0. Specifically, in file tests/reg-tests-1d.R this test

Dear R developers, we have currently a 'mysterious' test problem with one package that successfully passed the tests on all platforms, with the only exception of Solaris x86 where obviously one of our help examples breaks the CRAN test. As we don't own such a machine I want to ask about a possibility to run a few tests on such a system: r-patched-solaris-x86 An even more recent

I wonder if it isn't time to change the reply-to-list policy of R-help and adopt the alternative convention of replying to the author and asking him/her to summarize to the list. Recently R-help has been too busy for me to keep up with. There were quite a few identical responses in the "Finding indices with a certain property" thread, rather than an extended discussion. I think

People's valiant efforts to sort out CODA aside, the burning question remains: has anybody made any headway with restart()? or any other way (and there may well be better) of trapping `fatal' errors from calls within a function.
