Dear All,
I recently got a laptop upgrade, and had to re-install the tools I used
for building R packages on Windows (XP SP2). I'm running into a strange
problem that I can't resolve. Can anyone shed on light? This is with
R-2.7.2 patched 2008-09-20 r46576, Rtools.zip downloaded a couple of
weeks ago, and MikTeX 2.7. The output below was from a cygwin shell
(PATH modified apropriately), but it's identical to what I get under
Windows command prompt. I've also tried adding the -l flag to install
in another directory that I'm sure is writable, but same problem.
$ R CMD INSTALL -c randomForest
installing to 'c:\R\library'
---------- Making package randomForest ------------
