[R] Package "prabclus" not available?

2010-10-10 Thread Christian Hennig

Hi there,

I just tried to install the package prabclus on a computer running Ubuntu 
Linux 9.04 using install.packages from within R.

This gave me a message:
Warning message:
In install.packages("prabclus") : package ‘prabclus’ is not available

I tried to do this selecting two different CRAN mirrors (same result) and 
with other packages (installing them works fine).


Looking up the CRAN mirror website I used (UK, London), there doesn't seem 
to be anything wrong with prabclus. (iMac checking apparently gives an 
error which is due to an error with package spdep on that platform in 
tests, but that shouldn't affect using it on Linux, or should it?)


Any explanation?

Thanks and best wishes,
Christian

Works for me for both the London mirror as well as CRAN master.
May I guess that you are under R < 2.10.x on that machine?

Oh yes, need to update this first. Thanks. Solved.

The error message could be more informative, though...
