1. you wrote to the mailing list rather than to the original poster. 2. you forgot to cite the original post, hence we do not know what you are referring to.

Re: [R] Error Installing or Updating Packages (Maybe because of a proxy)
Back again,
just tried at work (through a proxy, same R version, should be same
Debian Linux version = Debian Testing recently updated but one on a
Macbook computer (at home, does not work), the other on a Desktop PC (at
work, works flawlessly)).
Will try to investigate further... Majid, did you locate the source of
your problem ?
Thanks.

Dear all,
I receive the very same error message on a Debian computer (testing)
with R 2.13.0 also.
install.packages('emu')
Installing package(s) into
‘/home/olivier/R/i486-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.13’ (as ‘lib’ is
unspecified)
Error in ret[i, ] - c(pkgs[i], lib, desc) :
number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
I have no proxy settings on this computer (neither
in .bashrc / .bash_profile, nor in my desktop environment, and I'm
doing it at home where I'm not using any proxy).
I can download a file on the web from within R (using both
download.file () or download.packages
('emu','/home/olivier/R/i486-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.13')... and
finally I can also use install.packages() on this downloaded file and
the install works flawlessly.
I can't find any old R base package in the various directories
indicated by .libPaths().
.libPaths()
[1] /home/olivier/R/i486-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.13
[2] /usr/local/lib/R/site-library
[3] /usr/lib/R/site-library
[4] /usr/lib/R/library
The only place where I can think there may be one are the local trees
([1] and [2]) as the 2 others are (should be) updated automatically
when updating R with the Debian pkg mngmt system and there's nothing
inside them. Only [4] contains a base/ subdirectory (a single one)
but I suppose this is the current one for R 2.13.0
I can install a package once it's been downloaded locally (through R
CMD INSTALL pkg) but can't succeed in installing the same package
from the CRAN mirrors using install.packages(). I experience the very
same issue with all related instructions (old.packages(),
update.packages())
I also could do that several months ago on a different Debian computer
(but with an older R version than the current one).
Any hints (including what kind of information I should give to enhance
the description of this issue)?
Olivier.

Back again again,
actually, the big difference between the two computers is in the
library path. On the computer where package installation
works, .libPaths() returns:
.libPaths()
[1] /usr/local/lib/R/site-library /usr/lib/R/site-library
[3] /usr/lib/R/library
With no path being part of my local home directory... and the install
puts the installed packages into the first one
(/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/) as expected. I will try to change the
destination directory for the install on the other computer.
