I went to the EPEL site, but it appears that the links to the R-2.9.1 RPMs are just text files, ~17 km in size, e.g. the link below. Do you know where the actual RPMs are? I don't know what a "metapackage" means. http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/4/i386/R-2.9.1-1.el4.i386.rpm Thanks, Scott Scott Waichler, Senior Research Scientist Pacific Northwest National Laboratory MSIN K9-36 P.O.
