similar to: setting R_LIBS

Hi, Is there some alternative to cumsum for chron objects? I have data frames that contain some chron objects that look like this: DateTime 13/10/03 12:30:35 NA NA NA 15/10/03 16:30:05 NA NA ... and I've been trying to replace the NA's so that a date/time sequence is created starting with the preceding available value. Because the number of rows with NA's following each available

Dear List, Further to my earlier email, I note that, for me at least, R CMD check is *not* reading R_LIBS from ~/.R/check.Renviron on R 2.15.2 patched (r61228) and R Under Development (r61660). The only way I can get R CMD check to look for packages in a user-supplied library is by explicitly exporting R_LIBS set to the relevant directory. R CMD build *does* read R_LIBS from ~/.R/build.Renviron

Hi, R people. I'm shy reporting this, as a bug in this area sounds very unlikely. Did I make my tests wrongly? I'm still flaky at all this. Let me dare nevertheless, who knows, just in case... Please don't kill me! :-) Not so long ago, I wrote to this list: > (For now, [the library code] works only for me when I do _not_ use `-l > MY/OWN/LIBDIR' at `R CMD INSTALL'

Hi, I have Debian Testing running on a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon (2015, 3rd gen.). I would like to have a package library independent of the installed R version. Under Ubuntu, I used to have the following line in ~/.Renviron: R_LIBS=/usr/local/R/library:/usr/lib/R/site-library This worked fine and /usr/local/R/library showed up in .libPaths(). However, under Debian (with the same ~/.Renviron),

Hi there, I'm in the following directory: ~/Documents/Rstuff/diceFiles/dice_1.1 The directory "dice" is in this directory, with all the usual build files (DESCRIPTION, NAMESPACE, etc). I'm trying to run the following command: R CMD check dice (where "dice" is the name of the package I'm checking), and I get the following: * checking package dependencies ...

Hi, I am interested in customizing the installation of R. I have gone through the ?R Installation and Administration? manual. But some of the stuff is not clear to me and I would like to get clarifications on the following points (for a Windows installation with R_HOME=C:\\R\\R-2.9.1 ) : 1. I understand that I need to create a file, .Renviron with the following path : R_HOME\\etc\\.Renviron where

Hi! Where to set R_LIBS? I have .Renviron with the line. R_LIBS=/package/R/R-1.5.0/linux/lib/R/library/;/home/wolski/Rpack/ in my home directory but cant access any library stored in the /home/wolski/Rpack/?

Thanks to Peter Dalgaard , I have made some decent progress as far as getting R to work in linux . I just want to set my environment variable R_LIBS to /u/etlfs/dev/users/leedsmar/R/library ( in linux ) so that I can install specific packages. Does anyone know the syntax and in which file I set this variable ( .Rprofile etc ). I've looked in the installation manual ( i'm mainly on pg 14

Dear Johannes, Dear Dirk, Thanks a lot for helping. Here is the missing information. Here is how I installed R. This is basically how Martin Maechler showed me to install R under Ubuntu (in several versions so that they are also recognized by ESS). My goal is to adjust this to make it work for Debian: 1) sudo emacs /etc/apt/sources.list # then add: deb

Hello, I've encountered the need to cut some chron objects of the form: R> mychron <- chron(sort(runif(10, 0, 10))) R> mychron [1] (01/01/70 16:36:20) (01/02/70 00:08:46) (01/03/70 16:54:49) [4] (01/04/70 06:45:00) (01/07/70 06:21:24) (01/07/70 18:28:44) [7] (01/08/70 00:47:05) (01/08/70 05:11:44) (01/10/70 01:07:53) [10] (01/10/70 17:46:53) into arbitrary (e.g. a given number

Hi, One of the big decisions when writing code is how to handle dates and times. Gabor Grothendieck provided an excellent overview of the issue in his R News 4/1 (2004) article, and many users and developers are probably using it as a guide. The proposed guideline is to use the simplest class required; as Gabor put it "use Date if possible, otherwise use chron, and otherwise use

dear dirk, i am following up on our thread on r-help-mailinglist. you advised me to bring it over here. when installing packages from within R, they usually go to a directory defined in R_LIBS_USER, which i have it set in .Renviron. when installing packages via sudo apt install r-cran-.., they go to /usr/lib/R/site-library. is there a possibility to have packages installed to the R_LIBS-USER

I asked a couple of months ago in r-sig-fedora about a difference I noticed between Ubuntu and RedHat/Fedora. Now I think I've figured out the cause is a little issue in packaging but I don't know how to get it fixed. On Ubuntu, the setup is like this. It i is controlled in a file called Renviron R packages built/distributed in RPM are installed to /usr/lib/R/library. R packages built

Dear Dirk, Dear Johannes, Thanks for helping, I could solve the problem. By reading your posts, I got a bit of the impression that questions beyond the 'standard installation' process are not really welcome on R-SIG-Debian. If this is the case, I'm sorry for my post. I wasn't aware of this, but Dirk makes it clear why on

Hi, I have a 3 panel xyplot with different variables in the y axis. I'm trying to insert a newline after "Width (cm)," in the ylab argument as in the example below. My goal is to have the y axis label broken into two lines, split after the string just mentioned. plotfun <- function() { fakedf <- data.frame(A = sample(1:100, 50), B = rnorm(50),

AFAIU, 'R CMD check --as-cran' tries to hide any site and user package libraries by setting R_LIBS_SITE and R_LIBS_USER. However, contrary to R_LIBS_SITE, it fails for R_LIBS_USER and the user's personal library is still available for test scripts. Should I revise my assumptions, or is that intentional? The short version. Shouldn't: $ R_LIBS_USER='' Rscript --vanilla -e

Hi all, I'm trying to check a package using R CMD check --as-cran <package>. When I do so, the check fails upon not finding the dependencies which I have installed in a non-standard location. Per the manual, I created ~/.R/check.Renviron : $ cat ~/.R/check.Renviron R_LIBS=/usr/lib64/R/library:/usr/lib64/R/var R_LIBS_SITE=/usr/lib64/R/library:/usr/lib64/R/var No luck. I tried

Dear List, I'm having considerable trouble setting up my environment (Linux, Fedora 16, Bash) to build and check packages under R Under Development (r61660). I'm doing this to better get a handle on difference in the output from running checks on examples in one of my packages. Note I compiled R Under Development myself The problem I am now having is whenever I try to build my analogue

I want my local libraries to have priority over the system installed ones, which, as far as I can make out from help(".libPaths"), means they have to come first in that list (it doesn't actually_say_ so, but that seems to be the idea). We have R_LIBS_USER which looks made for specifying where I keep my own libraries. Unfortunately it comes last in .libPaths() [which appears to

Hello, I am trying to install R and have it running through ESS on a Vista machine that is not mine (I am only familiar with Windows XP and Ubuntu Linux) so please pardon my unfamiliarity... The Rgui.exe installation works fine and package installation also appears to work fine. The base packages are installed in C:/Program Files/R/R-2.8.0/library/ and user-installed packages are installed in
