Re: [R] Regarding posting a package to R-forge (with one of the dependent packages not in CRAN)

2008-12-02 Thread Marcelo Perlin
Hi Uwe,

Thanks for the reply.

I already tried that a couple of weeks ago, with the exactly the same
arguments you posted. So far no reply from the author.
I going to try again.

Regards,
Marcelo.

 Hi Guys,

 Recently I wrote a package for dealing with Markov Switching Regressions
 in
 R and it is included in the Rmetrics project.

 https://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/rmetrics/

 Everything works fine when I use it in computer.

 But, the package depends on the use of optimization functions from the
 package Rdonlp2, which is not available on CRAN.
 So, if I have Rdonlp2 in my laptop (or any computer) I can load the
 package
 and it works fine.

 But, the problem Im having is that when I submit the package to R-Forge,
 the
 R-Forge system try to build it (Rcm -build ... ) and outputs a error
 message
 saying that Rdonlp2 is not found. This means that its not possible to get,
 from the internet, the package I wrote with install.package(...).

 Did anyone had a simillar problem ? Any suggestions for a workaround or
 solution ?



 Well, if others should be able to use your package, they will probably also
 need Rdonlp2. How are those others supposed to get it? I fear you will
 need to make it available as well - and if you are not the authors, convince
 its author to make it available.

 Best,
 Uwe Ligges



  Thanks for your help!

 Marcelo.
