similar to: CRAN package orphanizing process

Dear R Developers, the following CRAN packages do not cleanly pass R CMD check for quite some time now and did not have any updates since the time given. Several attempts by the CRAN admins to contact the package maintainers had no success. norm, 1.0-9, 2002-05-07, WARN sound, 0.6, 2002-08-31, WARN Bhat, 0.9-07, 2003-11-04, WARN HI, 0.1, 2003-11-04, WARN mmlcr, 1.3.2, 2003-11-15, WARN mvnmle,

The CRAN policy page (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html) implies that there is a formal procedure for orphaning a package but none is mentioned in the Extensions manual (https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-devel/R-exts.html). This page (https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Orphaned/README) implies that one would simply resubmit the package to CRAN with the text

Dear R-Devel subscriber, I would like to raise a topic and ask for your advice, guidance. Today on R-help an issue with a certain package popped up that has been removed from CRAN, because it failed the checks and/or the dependencies are not any longer available. The package maintainer has been alerted to this issue a couple of times and kindly asked to fix the code, such that it fullfills the

As mentioned earlier I want to decentralize the package descriptions of all contributed packages: Please make sure to include a file called DESCRIPTION in every package which looks like: ********************************************************** Package: e1071 Version: 0.7-3 Author: Compiled by Fritz Leisch <Friedrich.Leisch at ci.tuwien.ac.at>. Description: Miscellaneous functions used

A new version of e1071 has been released to CRAN which should be much easier to install on a lot of platforms because reading/writing PNM images has been moved to the pixmap package, hence there are no longer dependencies on external libraries and no configure mechanism. For the authors, Fritz Leisch ********************************************************** Changes in Version 1.2-0: o

Hi all, thanks help by Thomas Lumley (who provided us also with a beautiful logo!) I've finally made a start for an html frontend for CRAN. It should be available on all mirror sites tomorrow. The master site is at http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/R and the usual mirror sites are http://www.stat.unipg.it/pub/stat/statlib/R/CRAN/ (IASC archive, Italy) ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/lang/R/CRAN/

Hi, on suggestion by Robert Gentleman we want to add a ``Other R-related sites'' collection of links to CRAN, where we give pointers to non-CRAN sites that might be of interest to R users. E.g., this could be pages in some language other than English supporting the respective user community or ... If you think your site could appear in such a collection, please send email to me and I

I have created the above directory for contributed R packages that are considered as ``in development''. It is intended as a central marketplace for code that is for various reasons ``unstable'' or ``incomplete'' but might be useful for others. If you want to contribute some code, please include a README file in the tar ball describing the problems etc. I have started

Sorry to bring up this old topic again but ... The 2.0 release of Debian Linux is about to happen and the release team requires copyright statements on any code included in the release. Presently there are 4 packages that I have created from R source code and libraries and contributed to the release. I think this will help with the visibility of R when there is a well-regarded release of an

Hello, last fsck says my /tmp and my /home files system has errors, here is the log from fsck using the read-only option: How to recover from this savely?

All, Sometimes when I do an rsync, it times out and leaves on orphaned process on the remote machine. I am running rsync over ssh using public key authentication. I synchronize about twenty-five machines, and this problem only appears on one of them. It worked until recently on this machine. I don't know what changed or what is different. I run rsync with a command line like this

Hi, I've just committed a few changes to the R make process, such that we support the standard ./configure make make install triple from now on. It should be included in tomorrows snapshot sources. The default installation directory hierarchy should be /usr/local on most systems, but this may vary. The installation prefix can be set using ./configure --prefix=3D... and you can see

Hello, I am running kernel 2.6.4 on XScale/ARM with BusyBox. Quite frequently after shutdown I have a number of orphaned inodes on the ext3 filesystem. (I have yet to figure out the precise cause of the orphans, but I believe it has to do with umount failing at shutdown due to a bug in BusyBox init that does not properly kill processes.) It is my understanding the orphaned inode list should be

Hello, yesterday I experienced following problem with my ext3 filesystem: - I had ext3 filesystem of the size of a few TB with journal. I correctly unmounted it and it was marked clean. - I then ran fsck.etx3 -f on it and it did not find any problem. - After increasing size of its LVM volume by 1.5 TB I resized the filesystem by resize2fs lvm_volume and it finished without problem. - But
