Perhaps there is some temporary binary-building delay because R 3.2.3 just came out? Did you try install.packages("tikzDevice", type="source") ? __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
[R] installing tikzDevices for R 3.2.3
Hi, I wanted to install tikzDevices on a installation of R (3.2.3) on a new machine. However, I am getting: > install.packages('tikzDevices') Warning message: package ‘tikzDevices’ is not available (for R version 3.2.3) Is there any way out for me other than wait for the tikzDevices to be updated in the repos? I am on Fedora 23 with everything up to date.

Re: [R] installing tikzDevices for R 3.2.3
Please do not use http://r-forge.r-project.org/ to install tikzDevice. We no longer update tikzDevice on R-Forge. It may be a problem of your CRAN mirror. When in doubt, try the RStudio mirror (the chance that Amazon CloudFront is down should be much smaller than a single metal server somewhere): install.packages("tikzDevice", repos="https://cran.rstudio.com;) # make sure your version of R supports https Regards, Yihui -- Yihui XieWeb: http://yihui.name On Fri, Jan 15, 2016 at 9:37 PM, Ranjan Maitra wrote: > On Fri, 15 Jan 2016 21:25:06 -0600 Ranjan Maitra > wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> I wanted to install tikzDevices on a installation of R (3.2.3) on a new >> machine.
