Hi there, Finally I got this "Rcomd SHLIB" to like me! The reason was because I did not log in my computer as "administrator", which caused some problem of perl being found...

Thank you for your help. I??m sorry that I found not the right entries in the R-devel. Now, I have again a problem.

I am running R 1.2.1 under Mandrake Linux 7.2 (installed from RPM) and I installed a few packages using install.packages() . Now, I am trying to upgrade these packages using update.packages() but I believe I am running into some kind of error. See below. Any tips will be greatly welcome. Thanks in advance. Francisco PS: update.packages() only tries to update wle from version 0.3 to 0.4, gives

Has there been a recent change in the behavior of binary operators? In SparseM it was, until quite recently ok to do scalar multiplication but now, > A*4 Error in A * 4 : non-numeric argument to binary operator > 4*A Error in 4 * A : non-numeric argument to binary operator > A%*%A An object of class "matrix.csr" Slot "ra": [1] 1 1 1 Slot "ja": [1] 1 2 3

Uwe & Marc, Adding the --vanilla flag doesn't help. Actually, the crash happens if I browse to a folder on a mapped drive. I.e., if I type in "q:\Andy" in the text box, it works, but if I try to browse to Q:\Andy and then click on OK, that's when it crashes.

Hello dear R developers, I recently found out that it is not possible to limit update.packages() to update only a few packages at a time. The patch offered simply adds a 'subset' parameter and the statement bounded within "if(!missing(subset))" to implement it. The code is pasted bellow (and also attached as an .r file). Might this patch be considered valuable to be added to
