Has anyone had trouble installing the package "ROpenOffice" from omegahat:
http://www.omegahat.org/ROpenOffice/ I downloaded the .tar.gz file to my local hard drive and tried to install it with the following code, but got an error message: > install.packages("/Users/earlbrown/Desktop/ROpenOffice_0.4-0.tar.gz", repos = > NULL, type = "source") Installing package(s) into ‘/Users/earlbrown/Library/R/2.15/library’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) * installing *source* package ‘ROpenOffice’ ... ** R ** inst ** preparing package for lazy loading ** help *** installing help indices ** building package indices ** testing if installed package can be loaded *** arch - i386 Error : package ‘Rcompression’ is not installed for 'arch=i386' Error: loading failed Execution halted *** arch - x86_64 ERROR: loading failed for ‘i386’ * removing ‘/Users/earlbrown/Library/R/2.15/library/ROpenOffice’ Warning message: In install.packages("/Users/earlbrown/Desktop/ROpenOffice_0.4-0.tar.gz", : installation of package ‘/Users/earlbrown/Desktop/ROpenOffice_0.4-0.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status So, I tried to install the package "Rcompression" first, but got another error message: > install.packages("Rcompression") Installing package(s) into ‘/Users/earlbrown/Library/R/2.15/library’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Warning message: package ‘Rcompression’ is not available (for R version 2.15.2) Any ideas?
