Hi all, The R version 2.14.0 Pacthed build from today, including patches up to 2011-11-20, is showing the following when started up : R version 2.14.0 Patched (2006-00-00 r00000) ... Isn't something missing here, like a correct date and a release number? On the page http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rpatched.html the release number is r00000 as well. Cheers Joris -- Joris Meys

I've noticed the following oddity where capture.output() prevents eval() from evaluating an expression in the specified environment. I'm not sure if it is an undocumented feature or a bug. It caused me many hours of troubleshooting. By posting it here, it might save someone else from doing the same exercise. Start by defining foo() which evaluates an expression locally in a given

FYI, via a bug report of one of my packages, I discovered that the following cases will hang Rterm when using TAB completion: CASE #1: Adding an empty default function for tail() causes Rterm on Windows to hang if one press TAB at the prompt: % Rterm -vanilla > tail.default <- function(...) {} > [PRESS TAB] Error in specialOpLocs(text) : (list) object cannot be coerced to type

Hi, is checking out R SVN trunk the recommended way to keep up to date with R-devel and check packages with the latest version? My objective is to be able to have both R and R-devel versions installed/working and up to date. R-devel binaries would be available as symlinks in my home directory so that I can do: Rdevel CMD check mypkg Rdscript -e "some R code" anywhere on my system.

Hello, This question popped up on the bioc-devel list, I'm forwarding it here. I know that sources for R-2.14 alpha can be found here: http://cran.r-project.org/src/base-prerelease/ But the OP (below) is asking about Windows binaries.

Dear R, The glmulti package no longer loads through the library() command, apparently because of a problem with rJava. I have today reinstalled R from scratch (updated to v2.14.0) and reinstalled all packages from scratch and updated them all too. The problem is the same as I found on v2.13.2. See session below for the error. I tried install.packages(rJava) as advised by the error report but it

Hi! In R 2.14.0dev (R version 2.14.0 Under development (unstable) (2011-04-29 r55692), Windows release (http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rdevel.html), the line : options(width=55) in code chunk of an Rnw file has no effect on sweave's output text file. The same thing in 2.13.0 worked. WBR, ALexander Favorov

Dear all, it looks like that something is wrong with the /bin/windows/base/rpatched.html page as it seems pointing to the 2.8.1rc version. Also, I do not know if it is relevant but notice the dates of the following files on ftp://ftp.stat.math.ethz.ch/Software/CRAN/bin/windows/base/ R-2.8.1pat-win32.exe 31963 KB 22/12/2008 16.15.00 R-2.8.1rc-win32.exe 31991 KB 25/12/2008 9.30.00 thank

Hi R-devels, recently, we have seen a new warning by "R CMD check" appearing for the devel-version of our package distrEx available on r-forge, e.g. as *|install.packages("/distrEx/",repos="http://r-forge.r-project.org")|* Here is the warning: %--------------------- [...snip ...] * checking for unstated dependencies in R code ... WARNING .get_S4_methods_list():

I've been having problems building vignettes in bioconductor packages with R-devel. Turns out that Rdevel/share/texmf/hyperref.cfg wants Blue and Red predefined, when only blue and red are defined (as of rsync Rdevel, Sept 10th). This is on a Debian unstable system (Sept 9th version). Might not apply to all other tetex systems. Seems to have bitten the bioconductor build system, though.

R patched for Windows seems to be missing. If one clicks on R-2.2.0pat-win32.exe at, say, http://stat.ethz.ch/CRAN/bin/windows/base/rpatched.html then an error occurs. I tried it at several mirror sites with the same result. The web page in question says: This directory contains a Windows binary build of R including patches up to 2005-10-24.

[I tried to send this message privately, but the return address bounced.] I think this has been fixed in R-patched, but I doubt if the fix has been tested in Win98. Could you please download a copy from <http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rpatched.html> and confirm that it has been fixed?

Thank you for correcting my misunderstandings, Professor. Compiling from source did the trick, and I'll be following up with the arch maintainers about addressing the issue on their end.

Dear List, I'm having considerable trouble setting up my environment (Linux, Fedora 16, Bash) to build and check packages under R Under Development (r61660). I'm doing this to better get a handle on difference in the output from running checks on examples in one of my packages. Note I compiled R Under Development myself The problem I am now having is whenever I try to build my analogue

Until recently R 2.1.0 was called rw2010dev. I just visited http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rdevel.html and noticed its now called rw2010alpha, not rw2010dev. I would like to use it without downloading all the libraries over again. Can I - just rename my rw2010dev folder (Windows XP) to rw2010alpha and then install rw2010alpha to that? or - install it in a separate

Dario, What version of R are you using. In my mildly old 3.4.0 installation and in the version of Revel I have lying around (also mildly old...)

Dear R-devel I have a function in a package that essentially provides a wrapper for a group of functions in another Suggested package (it sets appropriate defaults for the context, transforms output, etc). I've implemented this by verifying that the package was loaded with require(sna) and then do.call(snaFunName, args = args) The rDevel check is requesting that I use
