Hi Addy, Giovanni, list, yes, the library that creates the problem is rpy2. Sadly, there is no support on Windows for rpy2 starting from version 2.1 http://rpy.sourceforge.net/rpy2/doc-2.1/html/overview.html#installation so I'd ask a Windows Pythonist to have a look at it and provide a patch to rpy2 developers. If it's only a matter of wrong paths it shouldn't be difficult. > In any case there are still unsloved problems in the plugin (Anne, do > you confirm?): using an older version of R (2.9.2 is what I observed) is > the workaround at the moment. Right. I confirm that it is currently working on Linux platforms with up-to-date dependencies, and suppose that downgrading to R 2.9 is the current workaround for Windows. Keep an eye on https://trac.faunalia.it/animove/ticket/20 and add there more comments on the progress of this problem. Thanks for feedback and sorry for inconvenience. cheers!
