Yes, I think that would be enough. Thank you, Kurt!

Hi all, The write_PACKAGES function has a 'fields' argument that allows a user generating a PACKAGES file to specify additional fields to include. For symmetry, it would be nice for the available.packages function to be able to read those extra fields when specified. Similarly, it would be useful for installed.packages to have a 'fields' argument. This would allow a user to

I set up a local repo for testing packages. My packages are not showing up from the repository when viewed by Linux clients. I suspect this is a web administrator/firewall issue, but it could be I created the repo wrongly. I am supposed to run write_PACKAGES separately in each R-version folder. Right? Maybe other novices can use these scripts, if they are not wrong :) Here's the file

I only recently discovered options("available_packages_filters" = list(add = TRUE, "license/FOSS")) [cf. help("available.packages", package="utils") in R 2.10.0 or later] which goes nicely with my options("checkPackageLicense" = TRUE) [new in R 2.11]. But now I want to purge my library of packages I would not have installed had I known about

Hi everyone, I've followed the instructions from R-Admin Section 6.6 for creating a local repository. I've modified my Rprofile.site file to add the local repository to my repos, but I haven't been able to successfully install my package from the repo. Here's the code that I've run. ################################## sessionInfo() getOption("repos")

Hi guys I think there's a high chance this is a bug. But I can't rule out that I can be blamed for this. I've posted this to bugzilla (#15092). Then I read that I probably should have posted it to R-develop first. Sorry for doing this in the wrong order. I've set up a local repo on my local drive (happens to be mapped to L:/). It has the following structure (as per

Hi all, I recently proposed a change in R that has led to the addition of new code to the R source code. The code added, as far as I know, has no tests and it might affect many packages in CRAN. I was wondering if adding a test would be helpful or it is already covered by some other test. Which brought me to the question: what is the coverage of R checks (check-devel)? My searches in the

Dear R-devel, I read with interest the recent blog post on how R will have parallel downloads, on blog.r-project.org (https://blog.r-project.org/2024/12/02/faster-downloads/index.html). Thanks Tomas! The blog mentions that one of the areas where this will be observed is while installing them (which I did!). However, I noticed they might be downloaded multiple times: If one interrupts the

Dear R-Users, I'm trying to setup a personal repository for a few packages I'm working on. I am on R-Forge but I still need to have various versions of my package that R-Forge does not build (for R 2.8.1 for example). So I followed the instructions in this document: Hhttp:// cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#Setting-up-a-package-repository and used this function as

Hi, After updating to R-3.0 beta r62328, I get the following: > install.packages("Biobase", type="source", repos="http://george2/BBS/2.12/bioc") Error in do.call(op, list(v_c, v_t[[op]])) : could not find function "R (>=2.15.1)" The problem can be fixed by adding a space after >= in the offending package's DESCRIPTION file and re-generating

I try to update R packages via my local repository. I put all R packages in g:/myFolder/myRepository, I do like > library(tools) > write_PACKAGES("g:/myFolder/myRepository") > options(repos=c(LocalR="file://g:/myFolder/myRepository")) > getOption("repos") LocalR "file://g:/myFolder/myRepository" >

Dear R devs, I would like to raise a request for a simple helper function. Utility function to extract package dependencies from DESCRIPTION file. I do think that tools package is better place, for such a fundamental functionality, than community packages. tools pkg seems perfect fit (having already great function write_PACKAGES). Functionality I am asking for is already in R svn repository

Hi! Thanks for this service! It is very helpful to know what is being developed. I distribute the content to other venues and I noticed some times that the updates are duplicated. For example, the sentence "?is.R()? is deprecated as no other S dialect is known to be in use (and this could only identify historical dialects, not future ones)." is duplicated in different days: Day 1:

Hi colleages! I want to import data from ms-excel and other spreadsheet formats (lotus, etc). Does exist any way to do it within R? The main problem is that many spreadsheet data use comma as decimal separator and not the point as needed in R (and many software for Linux), so importing data first as a tab separated values does not solve this problem. Thanks, Tom?s Revilla

Hi, On Writing R Extensions there is a footnote [6] about the "Date" field on the DESCRIPTION file being required by CRAN: "required by CRAN, so checked by R CMD check --as-cran" I think this is no longer up to date, as I've seen packages published on CRAN without it. This might be because now the Packaged date is checked too (around src/tools/R/QC.R line 7998). Best,

Hello, I want to arrange data from a table to perform a simple regression. All the examples I saw deal with paired data, e.g. 'x' and 'y' have the same dimensions (e.g. 5 values for x and 5 for y). But I have more than one 'y' for each 'x' value, e.g. the data file has a x = 0, 30, 60, and 120 columns. And for each of them I have several replicate responses (e.g.

Hi. I'm just having a look about aggregating several IMAP sources and a IMAP aggregator proxy would come very handy. I just read: http://www.cyrusimap.org/mediawiki/index.php/Cyrus_Murder_Design and found it very interesting. Anyone did something similar based on: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3656 Thanx.
