Dear Johannes, Thanks a lot for this work! I have to admit that I'm now a little bit puzzled, though. I'm running Debian Jessie (current testing) with great satisfaction. When it comes to R, I simply have the SID repository (official Debian) enabled, with some pining to get only R-related stuff. Now, I'm not sure to understand the benefit of using the CRAN repository for Jessie?I

Thanks Johannes to clarify this point. It makes more sense to me now. So I understand that the idea is to make it simpler without apt-pinning for less adventurous people (I mean normal people :)): just add jessie-cran3 repo and you're good to go. Am I also correct that jessie-cran3 is essentially a backport of Debian SID, with some (short?) delay? In other words, modulo a couple of days,

After Johannes set up the CRAN repository for Jessie, I had quite some trouble figuring out what any user should do to have a running and up-to-date R in Debian (particularly Testing). Part of the problem is, I think, the overwhelming documentation on the page "DEBIAN PACKAGES OF R SOFTWARE" which is provided on CRAN at /bin/linux/debian. Some information is also lacking in places.

Hi Johannes, I didn't know what would be the best approach to modify the page?how it was generated, is there a central place, etc.?which is why I posted on r-sig-debian in the first place. Anyway, although I'm more or less familiar with markdown and pandoc, it was easier for me to edit directly README.html as it was on CRAN. Please find attached a revision with the modifications I

Dear all, i have re-installed Debian on my computer and for some reason I cannot install some packages anymore using the install.package command from the R console. Some packages I can, and some I cannot (Design for instance) this is what I get: > install.packages('Design') Installing package(s) into ‘/usr/local/lib/R/site-library’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) --- Please select a CRAN

We'd like to announce the initial CRAN release of 'rpostgis' (v1.0.0), which facilitates transfer between PostGIS "Geometry" objects (stored in PostgreSQL databases) and R spatial objects. The package also contains a variety of convenience functions which are supplemental to the excellent 'RPostgreSQL' package for interfacing with a PostgreSQL/PostGIS database. To

Hi all, I'm looking for a fix in postgis, which seems to be fixed already in postgis-2.0.7-2.el7. However that package seems to be 'stuck' in the epel7-testing repository: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=750618 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2016-b6c229157e Is there a reason that the package is not pushed to stable yet? Or can it be

Hi I know this is not directly centos related but if anyone has used postgres before then that would be a help!! Normally i'm an oracle or mysql guy. I have to install a qa postgres box that uses postgis. All seems well but when the devs import the schema this happens...

Just wanted to post this in case someone else was faced with the same problem. It''s database-specific code, worse, it''s specific to a particular * version* of a particular *extension* to a particular database, wires in SQL, and uses eval on a string of data from the database! So, you know, I''m getting coal in my stocking from DHH this year. I can deal. (After the

Hello, This post is to announce a new release of the Spatial Adapter for Rails, which is a plugin that adds support for columns of geometric types (point, linestring, polygon,etc...) to ActiveRecord. Currently the only supported databases are MySql and PostGIS. With this release, geometric columns should behave like columns of any other basic types in all areas: migration, data access, dumping
