similar to: install R 2.8 on Debian etch?

I uploaded packages of 1.0.17 to Debian unstable more than a month ago, and also updated the xapian-backports PPA on launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~xapian-backports/+archive/ppa But more recently and more notably, I've now uploaded backported packages for Debian 5.0 (the current stable release, codename lenny) and Debian 4.0 (the "oldstable" release, codename etch) to

Greetings, I've been trying to upgrade R packages on my Debian Etch (whose other upgrades I have been cheerfully going along with as they occur). When I did, just now: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade I got: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Calculating upgrade... Done The following packages have been kept back: r-base-core r-cran-boot r-cran-cluster

Hi. Last week I updated from 32 bit etch to 32 bit lenny on an AMD SMP machine. I first cloned the system disk to an identical drive, and updated the cloned drive. I still have the etch install untouched on the previous drive, which has allowed me to do some testing. After the update R has slowed down significantly. A user brought this to my attention, and at this point we have only

After several months of testing in the "experimental" branch of Debian, samba 3.2.0 was uploaded to Debian "unstable" as of July 20th 2008 and entered the "testing" branch of the distribution as of August 1st. As the "testing" branch is the future stable release of the Debian distribution, this means that Samba 3.2.0 will be in the upcoming release of

Hi, I'm running a highschool network with Debian etch and the etch-cran "backports" on top of it. Being bio-informatics, the newest R is essential to us. I did some upgrading experiments; switching to ubuntu is not an option, neither is fetching the sid debs for r. When trying to upgrade from etch to lenny with etch-cran packages installed things block on etch-cran dependencies.

Hi folks, before I flood the bug tracking system, I just want to send you a list of problems I encountered when using xen under Debian Etch (i386 on Intel Core2 Duo E6750). Shall I open a seperate bug report for each of the items below or are some of them features that are known to be missing in the xen release? - A HVM domain does not start when using a physical disk without specifing the

Dear R-Users, I am having some trouble getting an installation of RCurl 0.8-1 to work properly on a Debian (Etch) machine. The command 'R CMD INSTALL RCurl_0.8-1.tar.gz' yields the following error: Installing *source* package 'RCurl' ... checking for curl-config... no Cannot find curl-config ERROR: configuration failed for package 'RCurl' I do know that a file is

Hi. First, I would like to thank all the contributors to this project for their efforts. Given that we primarily use Debian and R as our computing platform, having access to these backports has been very beneficial. I have been looking in the last couple of days for AMD64 lenny backports of the R 2.9.0 packages in lenny-cran. Will these appear in due course or are there issues backporting

Hi Folks, I'm running Debian-4.0 Etch, installed last September from a DVD, and regularly updated as things arise. I have R version 2.4.0 Patched (2006-11-25 r39997) installed (initially at the time of first installation of Debian, as provided by Debian), along with a variety of packages. I'd like to be able to connect to the CRAN repositories for Debian R, for updates etc. When I visit

Thanks Piet & Johannes for the backports. There seems to be a problem with the files for the amd64 architecture getting out.

Hi all. Sorry for posting this to the devel list but the website is unclear on this issue. We''re about to purchase Xen Enterprise and would like to run it on Debian Etch (i.e. Debian Etch for the dom0 as well as the domUs). It looks like the deliverable when Xen Enterprise is purchased is a CD image containing a Red Hat installation. Can anyone point us at a supported method of

Hi Everyone, I have a small project going on. I'm about to migrate Redhat 7.3 to Debian Etch (smbd version 3.0.23d-2+b1). I've already managed to migrate Redhat 7.3 to Debian Sarge (smbd version 3.0.14a-) without any bigger problems. However, when I migrate to Etch I face a small problem. The last thing I want to do before I start samba is to grant my linux/samba admin, NT 'Domain

Hi, I have been testing XenServer 4.1 and I have migrated to Xen 3.2.1 due to the lack of PCI passthrough in Citrix XenServer. I''ve spent 6 hours this evening installing backports packages and/or compiling the source in a fresh Debian Etch install. But still my DomU is crashing. I suspect I have too many versions floating around now so I will try again from scratch. What is the simplest

Hi All, Fairly new to Debian and Xen but I have a box running with lots of DomUs under Xen2 and it is fine. I have setup a new IBM eServer P4 and loaded Etch and loaded Xen3. It runs up my first DomU beautifully but when I start my second DomU it crashes the PC and reboots. If I comment out the line in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp (network-script network-bridge) It will run 2 DomUs Have I run

Hi Folks, Has anyone got a compiled binary of the package 'plm' and/or of the package 'kinship' for Debian Etch? I'm asking because I'd like to install 'plm', but have failed because it depends on 'kinship', and 'kinship' refuses to compile on my Debian Etch. The underlying reason is the Debian refuses to allow me to install the development

how come only 1 out of 3 versions of wine actually gets built for etch? i mean i understand that the packages get built by different people so theyre not updated synchronously but ubuntu, suse, mandriva etc are all up to date at 0.9.60, whereas the latest etch package ist version 0.9.58, TWO versions behind !!! no fair! i mean cmon! debian is just as mainstream as the rest of em, so give us a
