Hi, trying to install a package containing C code and requiring non-default configure argument settings the incantation (this has worked for R <= 2.8.1 on the same architectures) R CMD INSTALL --configure-args="--with-opt1 --with-opt2" packname does always result in a warning Warning: unknown option '--with-opt2' and consequently the option is ignored. Reverting the order

Hi! Is it possible to avoid this error condition by specifying a command line option? I haven't found an obvious one in the manual. Background: We are using rsync for a live backup of our home directories. Emails are stored in Maildir format within the homedirectories. The rsync process is running for some time and in the meantime emails get deleted because users still have IMAP access. The

There appears to be a bug in RUnit. Given a testsuite testsuite.math, say, when I run: runTestSuite(testsuite.math) this works fine, provided there are no extraneous files in the unit test subdirectory. But if there are any Emacs temp files (with names that end with '~') then runTestSuite gets confused and tries to run functions from the temp files as well. [[alternative HTML version

Hi, after updating R 2.5.0 devel yesterday we today observed many new unexpected failures in our daily package build and test system runs, which can be traced to recent changes in the implementation in try() (as noted in NEWS). Investigating this new implementation I come across an issue in conjuntion with using S4 classes and methods. try(expr) does not return an object with attribute

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm generating a symmetric correlation matrix using a data matrix as input: mat <- cor(data.mat) My question is: Is there a more memory efficient way to store this data? For instance, since: all(mat == t(mat)) every value is duplicated, and I should be able to almost half the memory usage for large matrices. Any thoughts/comments? Cheers,

I'm working on the next version of coxme, one step of which is converting the bdsmatrix library from Splus to R. Actually, it is a conversion from S4 methods as first described in the Green book to S4 methods as they currently exist. Mostly it's going ok, but not entirely. 1. The biggest issue is lack of documentation. The online help pages have not been a help; they keep saying

Hi (especially Wayne), ftp.gwdg.de is rsyncing most of the data from about 500 other rsync servers. Especially during the general "high traffic" phases like the release of a new Knoppix ISO or a new SUSE distribution or a new KDE release, I see timeouts with other servers which have maximum traffic at that time. There is a general scheme: 1. rsync is building the data base of the

Having used JUnit and PyUnit, I was pleased to see the release of the RUnit package on CRAN. I'm wondering if there are any RUnit users out there that would be willing to share some tips on how they organize their code to work with RUnit. Specifically, I'm wondering about the best way to load/import/source the functions to be tested. I would like to end up with a script, testall or some

I'm a database noob, and it really seems like it would be overkill for my setup: I just want to proxy all connections from my DMZ to my internal mail server -- same internal server for all users. I used to use perdition for this set up, but am having issues getting it to play nicely with my new servers. Can I bypass all of the SQL stuff and just have dovecot forward all POP/IMAP

Hi All, I'm interested in putting some unit tests into an R package I'm building. I have seen assorted things such as Runit library, svUnit library, packages with 'tests' directories, etc I grep'd "unit test" through the writing R extensions manual but didn't find anything. Are there any suggestions out there? Currently I have several (a lot?) classes/methods

I'm using Dovecot (+postfix) to host some personal imap accounts on a private server (Maildir format). I've got one account that receives mostly automated mails, and I want to be able to purge messages beyond a given date (say 30 days). I know that since maildir uses flat files, I can literally just delete messages doing something similar to the following with bash: for i in $(find

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've written a function in R which takes a symmetrical matrix as input and processes all triplicate combinations of values from the matrix.

Are there any particular licences under which R packages must be released or is it the discretion of the author? The same question if the package is to be destined for CRAN?

good day here, I'm maintaining a couple of R modules, both on r-forge. tests for these modules are written making use of unit testing, and I make use of the svUnit module, part of SciViews-R. I also make use of examples in the .Rd files. my question regards 'R CMD check pkg'. if an _example_ is not run correctly, I get clear feedback on the command line where I run 'R CMD
