Hi, Today we've seen the following problem with the R-2.12 that we use for our Windows builds: > installed.packages() Error: subscript out of bounds After some investigation we discovered that the cause of this failure was that 1 of the 890 packages currently installed on the machine (Windows Server 2003 R2) had its DESCRIPTION file empty:

I just downloaded R-devel and when loaded it immediately segfaults. I'm not sure how much or what sort of diagnostic info and can provide, but below is my build script, my console output, and the output of uname -r. I am currently dependent on the development version of a package, so I'd like to get R-devel up and running if possible. I am sure there is more info I can provide, but before

I can compile RSPython without difficulty, been when I try to load it, I get the error messages below. Also below are some cryptic warnings I get on R boot (in case these are pertinent) and my sessionInfo(). Any help is appreciated.

I have recently upgraded to Ubuntu Gutsy and, for the first time, am using a 64-bit installation. After failing miserably to install R from source, not a problem for me in the past with a 32-bit install, I went the route of using the Debian Etch build. This went smoothly, but I am unable to update my numerous R and BioConductor packages, getting non-zero exit status errors on each package. Is

Martin, Well, thanks for jumping in! We need all the help we can get ;) I changed the execute bit as you suggested and recompiled, no luck, still the same error message. Below is the output you wanted me to look at, its a bit beyond me so I include both a brief grep summary and then the whole enchilada. I do note that my output is different from yours, but I'm not sure how to interpret. I

I'm having trouble with a Bioconductor package, an variable expected in an environment does not seem to be there. As part of my investigation of the problem (most likely on my end) I'd like to list the variables contained in an environment. If you have an environment loaded, lets call it "pkgEnv', how does one find what it does contain? Mark

I have a very long list of strings. Each string actually contains multiple values separated by a semi-colon. I need to turn each string into a vector of the values delimited by the semi-colons. I know I can do this very laboriously by using loops, nchar, and substr, but it is terribly slow. Is there a basic R function that handles this situation? If not, is there perhaps a faster way to do it than

Subject pretty much says it all. I am running 64-bit Ubuntu 8.04, i.e. Hardy Heron, have openmpi installed, and get the following error message with attempted install of Rmpi. sessionInfo() follows.

I am experiencing an OOLOCK error when attempting to update packages to my site-library. I have an identical setup on my local Linux machine, but this problem on the remote Linux machine (PPC cluster) started about 3 weeks ago and is present whether I used R-devel or R-2.6.0 or R-2.5.1. Also, of course I manually remove the 00LOCK folder after each failed attempt. Below is my error output,

Switched back to R-devel tonight after using R-2.6.1 for awhile and when I updated my devel packages Matrix installation failed. Not critical for me but thought I should report it.

Recently I posted to this list with a question about using the Intel 10.1 compilers in building R and one response was basically, "why in the heck would you want to do that?" The answer is that my sysadmin believes that there will be a performance boost with the Intel vs. Gnu compilers on our Linux cluster, of which I am one of many users. Wanting to be a good citizen and use my machine

For years I have been using options(error = recover) either in .Rprofile or from within R for debugging purposes. The functionality of this appears to have changed and I can't recover it (no pun intended) using the ?options help page. How can I get the old functionality back, particularly from within .Rprofile? A specific line entry would be appreciated. An example, the help page, and

I am performing many permutations on a data-set with each permutation producing a variable number of results. I thought that the best way to keep track of all this in one object would be with a list ('res.lst'). To address these variable results for each permutation I attempted to construct this list using 'assign'. There is even more nesting than indicated below, but this is a

I have developed a problem with the postscript output of plot on Windows. My code still works properly with R 2.3 but, with R 2.4, the white text on red background does not show up.

I have run into a problem loading a just saved R object using R-devel. I have been saving and loading this particular type of R object for a long while and never ran into this problem. I save, then immediately reload (to test save) and get "ReadItem: unnknown type 65". This error is reproducible after logout from server and restart of emacs and R. Below is my output and
