It might be worth approaching rOpenSci https://ropensci.org/ to take
over resurrection/maintenance of this.

But, it seems others are in your predicament:

so there may be others you can reach out to for alternatives.

Re: [R] issue -- Packages unavailable for R version 3.2.3

Hmm, well I probably wouldn't suggest that you roll 3 years worth of bugs 
in R back in, but it obviously is a conundrum, whether to do that or to fix 
issues that have cropped up in a package over three years. 

The author seems to have a beef with CRAN (we saw an outburst less than a week 
ago), but from what I gather, Rstem got rolled into RTextTools, which _is_ on 
CRAN, so you might get away with installing that, then get the 
sentiment-tarball from CRAN, unpack it, modify dependencies, and see whether 
sentiment installs from its local directory. (You can also get it from the 
author's github, but that hasn't been touch for three years either, and 
modifying probably isn't easier that way.)

It's not unlikely that you will need a copy of "Writing R Extensions" at hand.

Re: [R] issue -- Packages unavailable for R version 3.2.3

2016-02-24 Thread boB Rudis 
Will you be able to fix the issues that crop up (or even notice the
issues) for these unsupported packages? (There _is_ a reason they
aren't in CRAN anymore.) That particular one (which is, indeed,
archived in CRAN) also depends on Rstem, which is also archived on
CRAN, and now (according to CRAN) "only available on OmegaHat" (though
older versions in the archive). OmegaHat has been down for a bit, too
(including today).

Basing a business practice on these packages seems to be--at best--an
unwise idea.

I'd suggest moving back to a version of R that those pkgs are able to
run on (probably best in a VM) and use Ista's suggestion or something
like MRAN to get specific versions then freeze that VM for future use.

Posting the same question in the space of a few hours is considered by many

[R] issue -- packages unavailable for R version -- 3.2.3

2016-02-24 Thread Sandeep Singha 
Hi,

I have newly installed R version 3.2.3 and experiencing an issue where the 
packages that I had been using in previous release aren't compatible in the 
latest release.


I need you help to suggest how we could force the installation even if its not 
supported or what is the workaround to move ahead with it.


Right now, I need to install the package 'sentiment'. Please help.

Installing unsupported packages is usually not a good idea (there is a
reason they were removed...).

But if you must:

install.packages("devtools")
install_version("sentiment", '0.2')

Best,
