May I request that Dirk's package for jags be added to the CRAN archives for Debian and Ubuntu? Installing the rjags package for R requires specific versions of jags to be present on the system.

Dear List: I'm having the same problem that was reported recently. The latest version of R cannot load the Matrix package, even though it is installed and readable. I've read the archive files for this list and tried the suggested solutions (e.g., removing/uninstalling the Matrix package and reinstalling it). Nothing has worked so far. Does anybody have advice of what I could try next?

While the basic installation went fine (like the previous R-2.14.2), now I'm having trouble installing almost one third of the additional libraries I want (which installed flawlessly with R-2.14.2), among them RODBC for which I show the message below (obtained on Ubuntu) :
