Dear Erin, I'm not sure why this is a problem with R 2.11.0 and not with earlier versions (I'm sure that someone else will be able to answer), but it is unnecessary for your plug-in package to require rgl, since rgl is already loaded by the Rcmdr package at startup if it is present. The same is true of tseries, abind, and MASS.
I hope this helps, John -------------------------------- John Fox Senator William McMaster Professor of Social Statistics Department of Sociology McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario, Canada web: socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox > -----Original Message----- > From: r-devel-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-devel-boun...@r-project.org] On > Behalf Of Hodgess, Erin > Sent: April-25-10 2:48 PM > To: r-devel@r-project.org > Subject: [Rd] problem with Rcmdr Plugins > > Dear R Development People: > > I have written a couple of plugins for Rcmdr and they do not seem to work > with R-2.11.0. > > Here is the output: > > library(RcmdrPlugin.epack) > Loading required package: Rcmdr > Loading required package: tcltk > Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... done > Loading required package: car > --- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session --- > > Rcmdr Version 1.5-4 > > > Attaching package: 'Rcmdr' > > The following object(s) are masked from 'package:tcltk': > > tclvalue > > Loading required package: rgl > Loading required package: TeachingDemos > Loading required package: tseries > Loading required package: quadprog > Loading required package: zoo > > 'tseries' version: 0.10-22 > > 'tseries' is a package for time series analysis and computational > finance. > > See 'library(help="tseries")' for details. > > Loading required package: abind > Loading required package: MASS > Error : package 'rgl' is required by 'RcmdrPlugin.epack' so will not be > detached > Error in library(RcmdrPlugin.epack) : > .First.lib failed for 'RcmdrPlugin.epack' > > > > This is on a Windows XP.
