I was having issues installing the latest version of ' raster' from CRAN. The behavior was that the repository showed a version 1.4-10 available. So I installed it using the GUI installer. In installed properly as 1.4-10.
Then I switched to the package manager to load the package. The GUI for the manager had two instances of 'raster'. When previewed the documentation file indicated raster 1.4.7. I Loaded the package and sessionInfo() had package 1.4-7 loaded. Figuring I might have screwed something up. I did the following. 1. Updated my system for the latest System patches. 10.5.8 Build 9L31a 2. Remove R from ..Library/Frameworks/R.Framework 3. Remove R.app both the 64bit and 32 bit. 4 Remove all raster components ( builds from Forge that the developer and I were testing) basically all the tar files. 5. I still have GDal, and Proj, and Geos Installed. 6. Download R and GUI Fresh from Cran > sessionInfo() R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31) x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0 locale: [1] en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/C/C/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8 attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] tools_2.11.1 > With No contributed packages loaded, I open the GUI Installer: The column that reflects the "installed version" has entries for packages That I had previously installed, But have not installed with this fresh and clean R install. ( XML, uncompress, survival,spatial, sp,raster 1.4-7.....) When I install raster using the GUI I get this loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] tools_2.11.1 trying URL ' http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/macosx/leopard/contrib/2.11/raster_1.4-10.tgz ' Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 1319282 bytes (1.3 Mb) opened URL ================================================== downloaded 1.3 Mb The downloaded packages are in /var/folders/ea/eaXeR9KIEZSbgaDPdoLSwU+++TI/-Tmp-//RtmpAvZAyO/downloaded_packages > Then library("raster") Loading required package: sp raster version 1.4-7 (24-August-2010) > when I check the documentation using the package manager GUI, it says raster 1.4.7 when I check the raster folder in R.frameworks.

This file is CORRECT. Index for raster 1.4.10. So, I have to conclude that some resources are left hanging around after I uninstalled R. For some reason. Am I missing something? and how do I get raster 1.4.10 to load and why is 1.4.7 left hanging around after I uninstalled R and all packages [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list R-SIG-Mac@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
