Dear all,

I have installed R using yum install R-2.9. I am able to use R for general functions but when I installed some library say gplots I am getting the
below error.

install.packages("gplots")
Warning in install.packages("gplots") :
argument 'lib' is missing: using
'/home/fedora/R/i386-redhat-linux-gnu-library/2.11'

That warning should not cause much problem.

Or maybe it would. I just noticed that you said you were using an ancient version of R and that library location is for the current version. You probably need to get advice from a fellow Redhat user if you want to run an outdated version. Installing packages for the current version is not going to be very successful. There is a repository of packages for older systems and you can find the link at the bottom of the package list on CRAN.

http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/

Look for the "Archive" link.


Warning: unable to access index for repository
http://cran.csdb.cn/src/contrib

From time to time it happens that repositories are unavailable. I just checked and at the moment that repository is available. You could try again. (Or you could have tried another repository at that time. Trying another repository might make sense even now, since the version of gplots at that repository is fairly outdated. The current version is 2.8.0 and the one at csdb.cn is 2.7.1 from May 2009. There have been several revisions since that date.)

Warning message:
In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) :
package ‘gplots’ is not available

any suggestion will be appreciable.

Thank you
