Dear readers,
I would like to install a local binary package (.tar file) on a Mac (OSX
10.5.6) with R 2.8.0...
How did the package get created? .tar is not an extension used by R.
(Source packages are .tar.gz on all platforms, binary packages are .tgz
on Mac OS.)

I tried :
mypkgdir = "/Users/philippesaner/Desktop/Rpkgs"
install.packages("R2WinBUGS_2.1-12.tar", destdir = mypkgdir, lib =
"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library", repos=NULL)
and get the following error message:
tar (child): R2WinBUGS_2.1-12.tar: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Fehler in sprintf(gettext(fmt, domain = domain), ...) :
Argument fehlt ohne Standard
Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong?
Thanks a lot for help,
Philippe
