I've let them know they're a couple of weeks behind on updates.

http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/2.4/

has no sp package at all. The last check summary is dated 2007-03-16.

Please try another mirror; if anyone could find out what is the matter 
with the mirror, and get it corrected, that would be welcome.

You didn't say which mirror you were using, but it looks like a problem 
there.  I just tried from one of the Canadian mirrors and there was no 
problem finding the package.

[R] Trouble installing package 'sp' in R 2.4.1

2007-03-30 Thread Gaurav Ghosh
Hi all,

I just installed R 2.4.1 and tried to install the package 'sp' working down 
from the 'Packages' menu in the R GUI.  The package would not install and I got 
the following message:

"trying URL 
'http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/2.4/sp_0.9-10.zip'
Error in download.file(url, destfile, method, mode = "wb") : 
cannot open URL 
'http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/2.4/sp_0.9-10.zip'
In addition: Warning message:
cannot open: HTTP status was '404 Not Found' 
Warning in download.packages(pkgs, destdir = tmpd, available = available,  : 
 download of package 'sp' failed"

I tried to find the installation file "sp_0.9-10.zip" through the 
CRAN website, but was unable to do so.  So I was wondering if there was some 
other way to get this package I need.  Or perhaps  there might be some problem 
with the website itself.

Thanks,
