Re: [R] Package installation
We are working in a new release that would solve the problem mentioned; in the current source tarball available it could be manage as Uwe said, adding the line in the DESCRIPTION file: ZipData: no By the way, besides the RTools needed to compile any package in Windows, you will need to install the libjpeg and libtiff libraries and follow the instructions in the README file. Sorry for the delayed answer. I hope you can use the package. In a few weeks we think we are going to release an improved version, with more functionalities. Any feedback will be welcome.

Re: [R] package installation fails only for sp
One thing you did miss was the request in the posting guide to update to the latest version of R before posting. Note that it is the download that fails, not the installation. There is a binary versioon of 'sp' for R 2.3.x on the CRAN master, so it looks like a problem with the CRAN mirror you are using -- but of course I don't have an outdated version of R installed to cross-check.

Re: [R] package installation fails only for sp
Sorry, I missed that 'i686 redhat' might mean Red Hat, that is a form of Linux. The advice in the first para applies: the current version of 'sp' in the source area on CRAN is for R=2.4.0: see http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Descriptions/sp.html If you cannot update your R, there are versions of 'sp' available in the Archive area on CRAN that willl work with R 2.3.1.

[R] Re: R package installation
Dear Prof. Johnson, sorry for posting the reply so late. I am already using FINK. But you were right, R was looking for g77 and the gcc libraries under the MacOs distributions. Rather than creating symbolic links I updated FLIBS in /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/etc/Makeconf so that it searches in the right path /sw/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin7.2.0/ For g77 I made instead the link you suggest under /usr/bin/. I removed and reinstalled the package and everything run fine, in spite of my versions of libraries and compilers (g77 was already up-date from FINK). Thank you all for the help, Marco Dear Marco, I was given an excerpt with your problem about installing package on a MAC, such as Hmisc. I had the same problems and found a work around. I have not had any trouble loading in source packages since, include Hmisc and Design, acepack and vgam. First, I downloaded and installed the g77 compiler. I use a progam named FINK to find, download and intall g77 (so first I installed FINK then from within FINK I downloaded/installed the g77 compiler.) Do a Google search for FINK, it is easy to find and install. After g77 was installed I had to make a symbolic link so R could find it: ln -s \sw\bin\g77 \usr\bin\g77 (I think I had to make a link to my gcc compiler also) \n -s \sw\bin\gcc \usr\bin\g77 It looks like you already have the g77 compiler from the message. the next mesage you can also remedy by symbolic links. Try ln -s /sw/lib/gcc /usr/local/lib/gcc ln -s /sw/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin7.5.0 \usr\local\lib\gcc\powerpc-apple-darwin6.8 ln -s /sw/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin7.5.0/3.4.1 \usr\local\lib\gcc\powerpc-apple-darwin6.8\3.4.2 The first directory path in each of the above may be specific to your configuration for gcc. But this did work for me, and if you find the correct location for gcc/ powerpc-apple-darwinX.Y.Z/U.V.W, you should have no trouble either. Good luck. Sincerely Tim Johnson Adjunct Asst.

I did the following: (for example...) 1.downloaded the zip file (mgcv_0.9-5.tar) from A .tar file is not a ZIP file. It is a Unix/Linux archive file format. Please read Windows FAQ 3.1 on installing packages under Windows. http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/rw-FAQ.html There are several ways to install CRAN packages within the Windows GUI, either via menus or the command line, described there. If you should elect to download the .zip file directly from CRAN at: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/ be sure that you are in the proper R version specific directory for the Contributed packages. You can then use the RGui menu option to install from a local zip file. HTH, Marc Schwartz __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
